Why are Warrior Axes so tiny?

Speaking of which... the freaking Ragnorak is too puny and thin for my taste. Bravura is kinda small to begin with, and now this. Blergh.

I noticed this as well, it's like the CGI team at Visual Works understands how to make fantasy weapons look big and imposing but the weapon design team for the game missed the memo.

The Spaceship Axe (Ironworks Axe) is also similarly comically small looking, like the Bravura/Ragnarok.

I hope starting in Heavensward they'll make WAR axes nice and big and mean looking. Otherwise, well, the suitably large and mean looking DRK Greatsword in the benchmark is looking awfully nice right now...

Considering the look of the new AF armor in hw, I think we will be seeing some larger axes. I like the look of the axes as they stand now.

Might look better if you compair with a race about the same size and structure. As we know that items scale differently for each race/size.

I don't think you guys know what the word "tiny" means. Axes look fine, egis look fine. Deal with it.
