The Messmer Soldier's Axe is dropped by Messmer's Soldiers just outside the Shadow Keep. It's not a guaranteed drop so you may have to kill a number of them before it drops.

Equip the Silver Scarab Talisman to Increase Drop Chances

In Elden Ring, the Item Discovery stat dictates your chances of getting a drop after killing enemies. Equip the Silver Scarab talisman to raise your Item Discovery stat by 75 points and make farming for the Messmer Soldier's Axe easier!
