Ok just picked up the hammer in the keep. The one that is +4 against giant-kin. What in the game is classified as giant-kin. Some one bigger then me or what. I was thinking that trolls might be giant-kin.

It means giants and ogres. Since you don't fight ogres anymore and giants appear in ToB you should just sell it.

I see so as in fire giants. So what is the reason for this weapon in SOA since there is no giants around seems like a waste of time unless you want to keep it till TOB. looks like another sale to Ribald.

Unless I'm mistaken, it works on golems to, but I may be wrong.
Yup, sell it!

By then you got Crom Fayer anyway, so just sell it.

Actually you fight some giants (Ettins) in one of the stronghold quests of a paladin, but you don't need that hammer to kill them, so is just another item to sell and raise cash.

I think it works on golems too. My anomen did some heavy damage on golems with the Hammer of Thunderbolts +3

If it's the Runehammer you're talking about, then I actually kept that one around. Once you find the rune to upgrade it I believe it gives you negative plane protection when equipped. When facing a level-draining opponent I dual-wielded it with Crom Faer. Of course, I tend to hold on to any item that can protect another party member from level drain.

Actually the rune hammer is found in TOB. I am still in SOA. I am talking about the hammer you get in the keep. The one that is in the room with the golems. Ans the question is what is giant-kin I am looking for classification of what this is. And what monsters are giant kin. Thanks for the help though.

Orge, orgille, adamghfgne Golem, iron golems and basically things that are bigger than you. However, I am not sure if it works on dragons though...
