Mistfall Hunter Greataxe Berserker

The Greataxe Berserker is a mini-boss in Mistfall Hunter that appears in Hallowgrove. It is not a class or a weapon type — the name refers to a named enemy you must defeat as the second objective of the Tracking the Treasure quest, the final quest in the Bell of Return quest line. Because players searching for a “greataxe” or “berserker” build often mean this boss instead, this guide covers where he spawns and how the fight works.

Where to Find the Greataxe Berserker

Tracking the Treasure takes you into Hallowgrove. The quest has two objectives:

Retrieve the Bell Fragment — head to the Supreme Hall point of interest in the northwest corner of the map, walk up the steps, kill the regular grunt guarding the objective marker, and interact with the marker on the ground.
Defeat the Greataxe Berserker — he roams just below the steps of the Supreme Hall, so there is no deep exploration required once you have the Bell Fragment.

According to GameRant’s walkthrough, the mini-boss is waiting in the area you jump down to after completing the first objective. Heal your HP completely before dropping down and starting the fight.

Greataxe Berserker Fight Strategy

The fight follows a simple but punishing pattern, documented by GameRant:

Let him attack first. Do not open with your own damage. Wait for the Greataxe Berserker to execute his unblockable aerial thrust attack.
Punish the whiff. Once the aerial thrust finishes, start pummeling him while watching for follow-up attacks.
Play for the stun. Keep hacking until the boss enters a stunned state.
Unload while stunned. When he is down, attack non-stop until he recovers, mixing regular attacks and abilities to chip his health quickly.
Repeat. If the fight continues, restart the cycle — bait, punish, stun, unload.

The key takeaway from the guide is patience: the unblockable thrust punishes players who rush in, while the stun window rewards players who wait it out and counter.

Rewards

Defeating the Greataxe Berserker completes the Tracking the Treasure quest. Loot his body for high-quality drops including camp upgrade supplies and rare accessories, per GameRant.

The Elite Greataxe Berserker (For Whom the Bell Tolls)

The elite Greataxe Berserker is a separate, tougher version of the same enemy, tied to a different quest: For Whom the Bell Tolls. Player guides covering the elite fight note a few differences from the Tracking the Treasure version:

Red boss icon on the map. Unlike the quest-anchored spawn below Supreme Hall, the elite Berserker appears as a red boss icon that you can set as a waypoint, and it may not be in the exact same spot every run.
Do not kite it out of the arena. If the boss aggros to someone standing outside its area, it respawns with full health — the single most common way the fight resets.
Melee is easier than magic. Guide footage shows spells dealing minimal damage (roughly 20-30 per charged hit) while a melee weapon clears the fight far faster; staying close also avoids the ranged attacks it uses at distance.
Doable on starter gear. The elite fight can be completed with starting equipment if you bring extra healing items and play it patiently.

Completing the elite encounter also lets you loot the boss and finish the quest chain, so it is worth the detour for the camp-upgrade and accessory drops.
