Slade statues.
I've tried using slade statues before as a weapon, but failed to live up to expectations compared to the titans corpse I was carrying behind me. The statue was just so damn heavy, but only did similar amounts of damage.

Coffin full of corpses.
Bonus points if are a necromancer, because then you can throw it at your enemies and play pokemon animate a ton of corpses right in their face.
That's incredibly hilarious, I didn't know you could use coffins! I'm definitely going to try that... Gotta catch em all

My full speed is 9.9, I stuffed enough dead goblins into my minecart to slow me down to 3.6, it weighed 8500 Urists and combined with my strength sent people flying to the edge of the screen.

How'd you get it up to 9.9? The highest I've gotten mine is 3.8, although I am carrying armour. I've also become a vampire to double my attributes, I'm not even close to 9.9.

The thread is metal.

Personally, I love heads. Especially throwing them at fleeing foes.

Science is always important. But it needs more flaming cats. Can't we build bridge-based catapults and fling flaming cats at the dust and goo?

It's time for the ATHATH Death Counter to increase once more in celebration for the end of the world.

Mods, the full set of items from semimega/megabeast hearts caps my speed and strength, with each individual one giving varied portions of the total buff.

Barrels full of sharp rocks can be good, as you can either bash with the barrel or throw the rocks, but ABSOLUTELY NOTHING can compare to severed guts. You may be laughing, you may be wondering "hahaha what, how is that better than a chair or a corpse?", but let me explain!

Severed guts (in this case, kobold) seem to have, or at least have had in the past, incredibly high bone damage, even through armor. I whacked a bandit in iron armor with my kobold guts and his ribs were driven through his heart in a single strike.

With the new bone carving element in the game, I'm wondering how well a bone sceptre would do, compared to say, wooden training weapons.

I tested them out in arena mode to see if they could parry, alas, they can't.

So it's an organic whip, then? XD

So yet another suggestion that sounds cool, but isn't feasible for adventurers' purposes. On the other extreme, a simple copper coin has everything you need in a throwing weapon.
Remember that guy who had a stack of coins coated in horrible bleeding dust?

As a superhumanly strong but wounded vampire, I find crutches to be very effective. But not on armored foes, or you'll be beating on that helm all day.

Dont like making threads so heres a derail.
Do gauntlets/gloves boots and such effect the damage punches and kicks do?
So if a mood creates a platinum glove, will the punches be heavier?
And do the spikes or ornaments on the item effect it?
Cause I want a platinum glove if it does

No on all counts. You'll just be getting heavier, less durable armor.

Your swag rating goes through the roof. Experts say that swag rating is the most important character stat.
