📋 About This Mod
This is the switch axe version of three weapon mods I made before.
I used different animation replacer for each mod, so you can use both three mods at the same time.
To change the layer, simply go to natives\STM\player\prefab\weapon\SlashAxe and change the weapon id in the pfb file filename. S_Axe088 is Defender Switch Axe, S_Axe050 is Kamura Iron Axe, S_Axe017 is Proto Iron Axe. Other weapon ids can be found on Monster Hunter Rise Wiki.
Characters are not included in these mods. You can find my character mods and great sword version of weapon mods here:

For Monster Hunter Rise players who love Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and want to swing Mythra's, Pyra's, or Pneuma's sword in battle. If you're a Switch Axe main looking for a fresh look, this is a no-brainer. Skip if you don't use Switch Axe or prefer original weapon designs.
