Dismember

The dismember skill grants a passive chance to dismember with axes when landing a penetrating hit on an opponent as well as an activated ability that does the same. The active ability can only be used with an axe in the primary hand.

This can be combined with the serrated mod or the dismembering relic powers (glazed/fatecaller) for additional dismemberment chance. However, it is worth noting that the weapon mod and the relic powers are slightly different than the skill, because they do not require their hits penetrate in order to dismember.
