Club of Hill Giant Strength (spoiler)
I thought I'd share this because I've only ever found the club of hill giant strength in one particular way and it seems kind of obscure.

At the top of the Arcane Tower in the Underdark, if I cast blade of daggers on the construct that's standing in the corner under the roof...the club will be on the floor when I'm picking up loot. Recently, I tried thunderwave in the same corner (after I couldn't find the club) and the club dropped out of somewhere. There might be other ways to discover this club but I've not figured it out. The club gives the wielder a 19 str and is a light weapon. In my humble opinion it is a great weapon for a rogue, like Astarion with little strength...if nothing else, it allows them to jump further.

The club is great, the reason you're finding it that way is beacuse you're destroying the Stool of Hill Giant Strength that's int hat corner. You can also throw the stool at the ground

I had no idea this item exist, thx.

Interesting find...
If you examine table in this area it will say you feel stronger near it, maybe even characters comment on it, i don't remember.
You probably broke the table or a chair and it dropped.

It's a nice detail, but it doesn't feel like it's too good when it gives 19 str, unless you do some multiclassing. What is damage dice on this club?

Use it for a monk with Tavern brawler feat.

Next time you're at the tower try sitting on the stool where you found the club. There's a whole dialogue set that's quite funny to behold.

I can see how you can use it on archer char to have decent chance to shove enemy.

Yes I found this by complete accident the first time because I shot a fireball over there I believe. Second time through the area I found the stool and was very confused before I figured it out and hit it.

Oh cool! I’m already thinking about some OP builds it can be used.

Like a gloomstalker/ assasin ranger , use the club in your main hand and then put the bow that adds your Strength modifier to its damage making you a top notch ranged damage sniper .

Will def look at this weapon my next game .

It's the leg of the hill giant chair. You just have to break it. So you can throw the chair if you have someone strong enough or blast it with something.

Yah my first playthrough was Gloomstalker/Thief and I used that club almost all game.

I also used the +Con neck, and the +Int helmet

So all my stats were real high

It’s great. It’s been around since EA surprised ppl didn’t know about it

Before you go too far ahead, there is also a chest on the balcony below that you should add to your inventory. When you put an item into it, it becomes a spoon or a plate and loses a ton of weight. Works well with powder charges and barrels.

I never thought about this application, makes you able to carry infinite amount of barrels, sounds amazing.

I think they patched this didn’t they?

Just wait until you find out about the Harper's stash and silence 🧀
