Elden Ring's PvP scene recently received a massive uplift, thanks to the addition of the Colosseum arenas with patch 1.08. The three Colosseums that have been present in the game since its launch have finally been put to use, giving players a dedicated arena for all PvP interactions, which was previously restricted to only duels and invasions.
Alongside many new gameplay features, Elden Ring also introduced some brand new weapon types to FromSoftware's "Souls" formula, with one of the most notable new weapon types being the Colossal weapons which includes swords, clubs, maces, and even axes. This article details the best Colossal axe build to easily decimate your enemies in both PvP and PvE in Elden Ring.

While the Colossal axe weapon type is essentially the Greataxe with some new combos and swing animations, it's a massive improvement over the standard 'axe' weapon archetypes. Colossal weapons are essentially the big and heavy weapon class, which focus on high DPS above everything else.
Using the Colossal axe along with Attack boosting talismans and high Poise armor creates powerful builds that are viable for both PvP and PvE content in Elden Ring. Here's a breakdown of one of the best Colossal axe builds to dominate the Colosseum PvP:
Weapon
Ash of War
Talisman
Faith Incantations
Armor
Thanks to its high AR, the Axe of Godfrey is the best option for a Colossal axe build, capable of hitting a maximum of 780 (while two-handing the weapon) on the standard PvP meta rune level of 125. The weapon's Ash of War, Regal Roar, can be used to roll catch other players, while also dealing a significant amount of damage.
