In this segment of the video, the speaker discusses the issue of knockback on melee weapons and how it can disrupt attacks by forcing monsters away, reducing overall DPS. However, the weapon can be effective for characters with abilities that already have knockback, such as the Barbarian’s Bash or the Paladin’s smite. The weapon, particularly useful for ubers, features a 40% chance of crushing blow, ideal for taking down tough monsters. The knockback doesn’t work on bosses, allowing for tactical use against regular monsters, utilizing corpse explosion charges for additional damage. The speaker highlights the weapon’s potential as a budget smiter item and suggests using it temporarily until finding something better, preferably on a faster base than a war hammer.
