Does Seismic Wave actually affect the AoE damage of Fragor Prime ground slams?

It doesn't with Jat Kittag, which is what turned me away from that weapon, but someone recommended Fragor Prime for a slam build instead. It'd look like this:

Just completely all-out on the damage. What I'm curious about is, with that Seismic Wave mod, will that affect the AoE shockwave from a ground slam with Fragor Prime, or will it only apply to a direct hit from the hammer itself?

Hammer has to land on enemies toes for high damage.

No primed reach is your problem. Vulcan blitz makes Jat Kittag leaagues better than any other slow/heavy melee weapon. Fury + berserker is also way better than 2 extra elemental mods. Once you get the berserker combo going you will see massively more dps.
With vulcan blitz, if there are trash mobs surrounding, say, a bombard, when you kill 1 mob it often sets off a chain which will just detonate the entire group. this is especially true for spin attacks.
I tried the same build with fragor prime, but vulcan blitz maakes Jat K far more useful and powerful.
As for seismic wave, i find ground slams more useful for tripping tough enemies for ground finishers. They're too slow to have better DPS than standard attacks.

I never intend to main-hand my weapon (by main-hand I mean have it equipped, only my guns at all times).

BUT, does Primed Reach affect the range of slam shockwaves?

Ground slams yes, not sure about combo shockwaves though. I would assume yes.

Im not sure but its fokin massive on jatt kitag with primed reach, like truly massive. That ground slam combo is rly nice to disrupt enemies when surrounded by bombards.
