STR for ARTs

I got a Gigaton today in a lotto cube, and a crazy idea came to mind.
I told Trill, "JHam and Pump Zook Gigaton," he said it'd might actually work.
So, builds. Any ideas using this concept.
Admittedly, I stole the hammer Gigaton idea from Onerai when I was getting double penetrated by his War Hammer when I was feebly attempting to fight back with a regular hammer.

-This is what I have on the matter. I don't really have this build right now, it's just a plan. Mind you, AtchSieben HD2 AND Pump Zook are NOT in Cosmicalc. I had to manual add them into the build.

Spoiler:

melee art eh? looks fun

I think more TGH just because?

As long as you don't run into another melee bot.

Gawt new ding.

Spoiler:

Actually, I tried that build not too long ago. Haku staff and J hammer are the only decent melee arts got. I got mixed results. Giant orange balls are always awesome, but fighting melee bots with an art is a loosing battle usually. I once tried tuning a haku staff with slow, and putting it on an art hopper, it was great at slowing melee, giving you enough time to hop away/shoot it to death, and sometimes it broke their weapons.

Too lazy to shop in Pump Bazooka, but its 100 cost so I left plenty of room. If you want more balance you could do 2x rapid on on the Pump Bazooka ad drop some of those basic High Tunes down to basic Run/Power/Tec etc

from my experience, 25 str 20 tec is PLENTY to hit airs, even lagging airs. Your big moutaiz is now a good anti-air bot. Now, if you put those stats on a mid sized hopping art (with speed tunes), it will be a bonafide anti-air. It wont be good enough to get airs that keep their distance, but you can definitely drop the ones that are dumb enough to get close to your orange balls, then melee them.

I would like to take this opportunity to say that tec not giving any noticeable dmg boost is a blessing in disguise, making it easier to choose str over tec.

pumpzoka is such a lulz, with 15 str it's already HUGE, i wish it move faster tho
but the most important thing, it doesn't have movement stat pinalty

at least im managed pull jhammer, railgun and gattling zoka combination...

Oh god the very concept of a jham art with pump bazooka is too funny

I really should try this some time

Was it you or Nisa who I helped testing it with low Str against lnd and art?

Even against a lnd with 29tgh it did over 35 damage (I think that it was 35 the lowest?) + that stun.

When those lnds are waiting for you right around the corner, you surprise them by hammering their face. XDD

Also, doesn't one of the Boiledeck have somewhat high str?
Oh, regular Boiledeck has the highest STR of all arts (well, unless any of the new arts have more than 13 str on the core.
Enemy too close, hit with Jham and send them even further with the cannon?

As you can see, I like hammers.

So I bought myself a Flame Mace just for my Gigaton. I'll try to describe how it works. Have you ever seen a Calamity Sword in action? Well, that's the Flame Mace. But it has a small Fire Pillar spawned when you slam it on the ground (see spoiler). It's burn lasts for about, eh, 2 seconds? Better then nothing. However, I DON'T recommend getting it. The fact that it acts like a Calamity Sword kills it 92% of the time.

However, if it acted like a normal hammer, this thing could be JHam teir. Attached Fire Pillar, long range thanks to Fire Pillar, slow but only because it's a hammer. Run into crowd of people with 40 TGH Daed, light EVERYONE ON FIRE. Man.

Well, boiledeck does not have a HD slot. You have to take into account the HD stats too.
