Please let us drop Plane Axe

[Splićo]

...my weapon racks are full of Plane Axes bcz that is currently only way to ditch that thing...for the love of god just let us be able to drop it on ground....

it's one of the best weapons in the game, why would you want to drop it? If you dont want to use it just equip what you want to use, I dont see the problem.

because it love to auto-equip itself and i dislike that, also why we have to have one on every game load? We can loot or craft other weapons so i see no reason why that thing is that important...if i hang modern axe or katana on weapon rack or wall it doesn't re-appear in my inventory on every game load...what is so special about plane axe that we need it so badly?

The plane axe is the default weapon in the game, and it respawns so the player has something to use if they lose it somehow.

I agree, however, that it should not respawn after reloading a save.

ok but...if i load my save that probably means that i survived and having other weapons...
idk why we are able to drop that cannibal Club but not other items

Sounds like another solution is just not have it auto-equip....honestly I hadn't even noticed. The only reason why its on every load of yours is because you keep trying to get rid of it and its set to help you have another.

Maybe post what it is you dont like about the auto-equip or maybe its a bug..? Does it switch from your main weapon to the plane axe after you do something specific? I use the katana for killing packs of cannibals, the modern axe for chopping down trees and the plane axe for everything else...and it always stays on what I select, I've never had it change to the plane axe arbitrarily.

considering how many hits it really takes to bring down a regular cannibal with it you might as well use your fists

I find it very good, a few hits and they go down like a sack of hammers...I dont even bother upgrading it and I especially like it for how fast it takes them down with fire. It's still my main go-to weapon...and the bow.

The modern axe feels like its encased in cement its so slow and even though the katana is nice and fast with good damage you can't use fire with it...I use it mainly for putting the fire guy down quick.

I haven't been killed since day 2 so after ~400 days on 2 characters all i can say is that it works for me and that it fits my playstyle very well. I've used all the weapons enhanced in all kinds of combinations, the katana is good in its way but I like using fire a lot for multiple AI which the katana doesn't have. The Modern axe is too slow even when enhanced as much as possible...the rest of the choices are even worse. I haven't used the spear much except for feather gathering and the rock is great for knocking down and killing but I miss blocking on both.

I'm terrible at melee so i use the speed on the plane axe + fire to compensate for my lack of skill. Obviously another weapon fits your style better, all good.

I don't know how you could not notice the auto equip of the plane axe. I've had it happen many times. I don't know exactly why it happens out in the woods, but I can tell you for certain it will happen if you build a raft and jump on and off of it.
