Smiths Hammer Is The Strongest Ranged Weapon In DLC

[Nifty]

People were mad when I told them that Smiths knives could hit 1.5k in the dlc.

Oh boy just wait till they see the sacred Smiths hammer.

Build requirements:

1. 60 faith
2. Axe talisman
3. Smith talisman
4. Holy talisman
5. Two hand talisman
6. Golden vow
7. Charged dmg tear
8. Holy tear

Want to know what a charged R2 does in the dlc?

3k on throw on average.

If the spins of the mele portion land your going well above that.

This is the strongest R2 in the game and the fact that it's travels as far as a charged fire ball, and does the same amount of dmg and hard knock downs for no FP cost.

Means that this is a God weapon.

Smith daggers were good for light weight dancer builds, hammer is good for charged heave throws and medium or heavy armor.

the axe also has an insane AR for no reason

Yeah I saw that, even if these weapons are essentially doing base axe or hammer dmg because this can be globally multiplied by 10% by Smiths talisman before using all the other optimal buffs means Smiths weapons actually do more dmg at range then their counter parts do up close.

Really surprised people aren't talking more about this and assumed they were bad.

Guilty as charged. Though, to be fair, I don't have anywhere near the stats you recommended, or the tears, which is probably why I stopped using them. >.<
