The Sky Splitter is a legendary axe in Diablo III. It requires character level 60 to drop.
The Smite effect of the unique legendary power is not the Crusader skill of the same name: it calls a single lightning bolt on the target, dealing 600-750% damage (subject to Proc Coefficient) as Lightning and Stunning the target for 0.5 seconds, with a small internal cooldown.
