How to evolve

  • You can throw the axe further by moving left and right. When paired with Projectile Speed bonuses, the axes will have wider arcs.
  • Because the axes already have large axes, area bonuses are more effective
  • To focus damage on the axes, it is a good idea to place yourself right below the crowd and let the axes fly into it.

How to Evolve an Axe in Vampire Survivors – Death Spiral

Death Spiral emits 9 spinning scythes that spin around the player. Each scythe is extremely sharp and has a larger pierce. Damage reduction can be applied to compensate. It has a larger Area and a faster projectile speed.

  • The projectiles’ fixed direction is very different from the Axe’s arcing behavior.
  • Because of the slow cooldown, Cooldown Bonuses are extremely effective for Death Spiral.
