    [​IMG] I'm in a HOF game and I'm curious what will the HOF kegsplitter destroy. I used it against barrels in act 1 and it worked great. I tried to use it against the crystal golems in act 2 and it did nothing. Will it work against the iron golems later on? I guess I need to know what counts as a construct.

    it should kill crystal golem. Maybe it's because crystal golems are immune to slashing damage. But anyway, kegsplitter does kills construct. Those huge golem later into the game? No problem.

    Hmm, I'm guessing that means that the four iron golems at the monastery are actually easier in HOF mode than in normal mode.

    I don't know about Heart of Fury mode, but in normal mode, Kegsplitter automatically destroys barrels, but only adds +2 damage against constructs. No auto-kill here, in other words.
