Desirability

Skullcrusher[1] is a giant club, the 2nd strongest weapon in the game, of speed, one of the strongest brands. Unlike Arga, however, it's two-handed, and only a few species (Trolls, Ogres, and Formicids) can wield it.

While it has a low enchantment level, the +7 strength and speed brand easily make up for it. If you're willing to sacrifice the shield slot, and have the strength to use giant clubs, Skullcrusher is one of the strongest weapons out there. Only a randart giant (spiked) club has a chance to surpass it.

History

  • Prior to 0.15, Skullcrusher had a +0, +5 enchantment level, and only granted +5 strength.
