Ground attacks pressure Orserk's Electric half and Anubis stays mobile.

How to beat Axel & Orserk: the quick answer
A mixed Ground and Ice rotation, reliable heat protection, and firearm-level sustained damage.
Enter the Brothers of the Eternal Pyre Tower on Mount Obsidian. Heat protection is required for the approach, but the combat roster should be chosen for Orserk, not for the biome.
Use strong heat protection without giving up your best defensive armor. Bring a Shotgun or Assault Rifle tier weapon once available, with a full second stack of ammunition.
Best Pal team to beat Axel & Orserk
This five-Pal team is built for the fight instead of copied from a score table. Raid guides also explain which roles belong in the larger base army.
Bulk makes it a forgiving answer when the arena becomes crowded.
Ice attacks answer the Dragon half while offering a different rotation.
A sturdier Ice option for players whose Ground pair needs recovery time.
Excellent for hard mode once the legendary is available and fully built.
How to prepare for Axel & Orserk
Bring two damage lanes
Ground answers Electric and Ice answers Dragon. A mixed roster survives bad matchups better than five copies of one Pal.
Check your temperature loadout
Reach the door safely, then make sure the chosen climate solution still leaves enough armor and accessory value for combat.
Stock more ammunition than the previous towers
This is where low weapon uptime starts losing the ten-minute race.
Axel & Orserk fight strategy
Respect the lance lines
Strafe across narrow telegraphs and use pillars to cut off tracking attacks.
Swap by current danger
Recall Ice Pals when Fire pressure is focused on them; send Ground bulk until the arena clears.
Save burst for clean angles
Use high-cost shots when Orserk is committed to an animation, not while it is crossing behind a pillar.
Axel & Orserk rewards
