Summary

Joseph Hamon is a combination of attacks and techniques of Joseph Joestar', in JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Battle Tendency as the main protagonist.

Joseph Hamon is a Spec in A Bizarre Day. It is obtainable from a 1/8 (12.5%) chance from Frog when using it on No Abilities.

Just like its counterpart. Many of its attacks have Hamonic properties, dealing increased damage to vampiric abilities and less damage to Pillarmen.

Appearance

Just like most other specs, Joseph Hamon shows almost no physical appearance. Other than the visual effects from its abilities. The Thompson Gun move (E) takes the form of a Thompson M1921 submachine gun, the most distinctive aspects are the vertical fore-grip and the 100 round Type "C" drum magazine. The Hermit Purple Block (X) can temporarily manifest Joseph Joestar's stand from Stardust Crusaders, Hermit Purple , which appears as a purple vine that covers the user's arms. The Rebuff Overdrive (R) makes the user's right arm flash yellow when the user is performing it.
