Title says it all, didn't see much information on Tomahawk's usefulness in Delve...Is it worth it to 5/5 it to lower some Nm/Megabosses resists or keep the usual merits?

If you're bringing WAR to stuff like Delve/Legion, why would you not have 5/5 Tomahawk? Even if it only helps your damage, what else would you merit in group 2 instead?

Savagery? Warrior's Charge?

I've always had Tomahawk 1/5 but never really found it useful in Delve.

Warrior's charge is such an insignificant DPS increase(more often than not a dps loss at that), you could drop it and never notice the difference. Tomahawk is one of wars big utility moves, I'd still 5/5 it even if it wasn't used in delve. The times where it is useful, it's damned useful.

Any proven/tested NM from Delve that are weak to Tomahawk? might try to go WAR instead of SAM if can work around it :P

Bosses are and some of the original strategies posted on JP wiki had Tomahawk in them. It's useful since every 25% the mob has a special defense type. 5/5 is 1:45mins of that Defense type being ignored.

For some reason I think a lot of the delve mobs are immune, someone should test. Krab, Bee, and tojil (first 25%) would be good targets

Never heard of a mob being able to resist tomahawk.

With augmented relic +2 feet your looking at -30% special resistance. It's multiplicative though. If the NM had 50% PDT then it would be 0.5 * 0.7 = 35% remaining.
