Axes and Swords

Well I was wondering if there is a difference between axes and sword besides the fact that one is a sword, the other is an axe f3. I've been wondering this since axes tend to be cheaper and I could probably afford to perfect one with gm scrolls. If there is a difference for heroes, please post below Thanks.

I bought a clean VIP 2H axe 150m, then the GM scrolls 30~60m each <3. Potential 3-lined too! But i need to buy NX with mesos, I dont spend RL money.
IMO opinion axes look so much cooler, and I feel like swords are meant to be one handed ... but axes of the same level as a sword usually have 1~3 more weapon attack and are slower than the sword. So DPM wise, swords are better (faster speed so they can make up for the missing ATT).
However:
IF you can find an axe with 6 speed (vip's)
+ Booster (makes the speed 4)
+ The soon to be Decent Speed Infusion (makes the speed 3)
+ A Battle Mage friend's yellow Aura.
= 2 speed, which is the speed cap makes the axe way better than the sword! So if you're bossing, find a BaM or Bucc for Yellow Aura or Speed Infusion .

Axes have higher base attack but are generally slower. Some axes are normal speed which is the same as a 2h sword. Other than that...I don't think there's a real difference besides price. I was thinking of perfecting a 2h axe with GM scrolls too just cause swords are too expensive.

Axes have more att I believe but swords are faster although some axes match the speed of swords
