Community builds that use it

CuriousAvoid duplicate weapons and mostly buy single copies of items; chase loot aliens with high base damage or elemental burn weapons. Javelin, Icicle, Double Barrel Shotgun and Brick are named entry points.
DwarfStats come from killing six enemies with one swing, so long thrusting weapons such as Spear or Trident gather kills best; start Hammer or Mace and build Armor and HP Regeneration early. Turrets and explosions steal kills.
JackFew enemies with high health, so use high base-damage weapons such as Laser Gun and Revolver, stacking Ranged Damage, then % Damage and Crit Chance, plus Speed to evade elites. Spears, Jousting Lance, Icicle and Brick (tripled material drop) are reported alternatives.
OgreKills explode and the explosions scale with Max HP, so stack Max HP and Melee Damage; Brick, Rock, Chopper and Fist starts are recommended, moving to Spears or Trident for long-range triggers. Keep Speed positive despite the Blunt and Ogre penalties.
