One could mod in a slade maul, and you could test it in the arena! :)

What is the worst that could possibly happen if you did attempt? Off of personal experience mine brought amusement (see sig :P). I'm fairly certain there is a how to lying about somewhere for adding weapons (on the wiki, unless I am thinking of something else, ie animals).

I'd rather see artifact decorations add weight, and the Planepacked glitch invoked on a blunt weapon.

Listen up: making a thing a ‼thing‼ doesn't make it more awesome or extreme.  It simply indicates the thing is on fire.  Get it right or look like a silly poser.

It's useful to keep a ‼torch‼ handy.

Planepacking the punch with a slade warhammer?

Artifact slade warhammers used to exist on account of it being treated as a metal iirc.

I made a squad of slade hammerers with dfhack's lua command line at one point, but they really weren't all that hot

Is it possible to make a planepacked hammer?

Legend tells of a fort besieged by a dragon. When 79 brave recruits fell to its breath, the last dwarf of the fort took up arms. He sprung from his sickbed and claimed an adamant one sword before he bulrushes the dragon. A clean swipe severs the head. But the dragon claws him in the lower body and burns him alive. As he melts into a pile of booze and fat, I rename him Ronnie James Dio and change his profession to dragonslayer. He will forever be immortalized and worshipped as a dragonslayer God.

Sure, but you'll still be playing the artifact roulette. You could get an artifact tin or wooden warhammer.

So to recap, one minute everything was going just great, and the next we have caverns collapsing, firebreathing cave beasts, underground brush fires, a screaming swarm of poltergheists back for revenge, zombies in the corridors, drunken brawls in the dining halls, magma pouring into the caverns, rotting miasma everywhere, insanity, madness, and a flying crocodile heading right towards us!

The arena already includes slade warhammers. Also leather ones.

Right when you unsheathed it your arms would drop like, well, a rock.

Your movement speed would drop significantly. And IIRC that also means your attack speed in this version.

Actually, it is possible to create an artifact slade warhammer in vanilla. Apparently, on some very rare occasions moody weaponsmith decides to use a boulder instead of metal bar as the base component. And there are several ways to mine slade. I even have a direct proof from some artifact bragging thread:
Most badass?

SLADE WARHAMMER. Unfortunately, it got STOLEN when the hammerdorflord using it decided he wanted to be a speardworf instead.

Full name- Cakes the Bashing of Arrows
It menaced with spikes of adamantine, spikes of steel, more spikes of adamantine, and silk. Engraved in the stone was an image of the hammerlord I gave it to striking down a FB.

I miss it already.
I yearn to have one of those myself. Or better, a slade maul. Mauls are bigger.
