The Chieftain is a normal unique
Battle Axe found in Diablo 2 Resurrected.
The Chieftain is unusual for putting All Resistances +10-20 on a weapon, a slot that almost never carries it, which is most of the argument for using one. The 100% Enhanced Damage and 20% Increased Attack Speed are ordinary for level 19, and the Lightning Damage averages out low enough to ignore. It is a stopgap that patches a resistance hole rather than a weapon worth building around.
