Hela's hammer
Hela's Hammer (Originally Demon hammer) is a recurring weapon in the Dragon Quest franchise. The hammer is so hefty that it has poor accuracy, but will always land a critical hit when it does connect with a monster, making it ideal to hunt metal slimes with. Unless noted below, the hammer reduces accuracy to 3⁄8 or 37.5%.
