Situational weapon, but worthy to have. Didn´t grab it yet and agree it can be disappointing in BG2. On the other hand it is one of very few +3 weapons in specific cases in BgSod and there can be really golden-underestimated-easter egg. Ifrc monsters are: many spiders, doomguards/horors/stalkers, vywerns, trolls, ankghegs, basiliscs, dragons,etc. + count all undead + giantkin. Basically if u see anything else than humanoids, it is monster or undead or construct or animal maybe. Werewolves I afraid are not monsterss, which is odd. (If I see one I will try to club him and see) Like always u can find/conjure or import few better +3 weapons. U can probably deal harder crushing backstabs with best +3 staff and possibly staffmace but u need to have them imported from bg1. Same in 1H - u can hit/backstab (monsters) slightly harder with best +3 slashing swords (hallo Drizzt), but same problem like with staffs, u need to have them imported from Bg1. Another thing is crushing is least ressisted type of dmg, while slashing and maybe piercing is more likely to be ressisted. I am almost sure there will be something, which can be put to grave only with +3 w and if it is a monster, than is time for this club. Conclusions (for Oh s**t monster again situations): If u have by accident or somehow clubbing backstabber u can hit monsters hard or maybe 1 shot weaker versions. (Cl/thief, Stalker/Cl) I think about Glint, str. item and this club. Good for Jaheira if she keep specialization in clubs. With 1 pip u can gain situational +3 to off hand for dual wielders. With Flametongue it can be undead devastating combo.
