AnonymousThe fact that you can't use hellflame cleave while raging is so dumb and annoying like this weapon was so clearly made for Karlach but it isn't made with Barbarian in mind

AnonymousFor some reason I can't sheathe the weapon. I hear that's a similar problem with other weapons constantly on fire? If so they should fix that cuz it's just jarring

To clarify this axe is behind the door named "illusion" that is part of the door puzzle at the south end of the Sorcerer's Vault. It is not behind the fake walls or illusions that are in the middle areas of the vault. After you get to the south end of the Vault go through the door Named "Silverhand" and it will teleport you to a new room with four doors. Break open the door named "Illusion" and there will be a chest behind the door with the greataxe inside. If you attempt to open the door it will just teleport you back to the room you were in before.

AnonymousThis is in the sorcerer's sundries vault in act 3, behind the "illusion" door. You must destroy the door to access the chest behind it

The ace itself not that bad and nice especially when you already use on other character the balduran slayer and laezil use the astral plane sword!
I mean astral plane is really a gith weapon and give you the powers if you are gith while this axe is a +2 weapon with 1d6 and a very strong ability which negate the fire immunity while deal area fire attack + the heat pretty useful in this case cause just extra damage at every second or third attacks without any self damage!
