Lightning-infused at +10 with basic cleric stats and 45 faith has almost 500 ar (about 200 phys and 300 lightning), not very impressive compared to say mace but is a very powerful hyper-armor option with zero additional stat requirements

Submit

i got this thing as a drop on my 4th playthrough i assumed it was unobtainable like how the lycanthrope hunters just drop pikes instead of the tree branch they use

Submit

apparently this is the rarest weapon in the entire ****ing series. 2+ hours killing the same guy over and over. i accumulated like 15k souls off a guy that drops 60 at a time. at some point i was scared the hammer actually couldn’t drop from him as i already owned 9 copies of his ugly ass fit.

What are the drop rates of this thing?

Submit

Combine with Winged Knight armor and become: "Smoogh"

Croquet build

Slamma. Jamma.

im considering slapping this with sharp and going headstrong on it on a dex build. i expect it to be good enough, since heavy rapier worked out perfectly well lol, but maybe theres a better choice

When you make a build, you should always aim to at least have 18 of both, strength and dex. This weapon requires exactly 18 strength, meaning, everyone should have this on their build if the Spiked Mace or Ledo's isn't an option. It still has greathammer hyperarmor (which is honestly the only real reason to use a greathammer), it has an R1, L2, R1 true combo and its light af.

Thats it! I'm getting me mallet!

just got this beautiful weapon after like 10 ****ing play throughs and it will be perfect for my undead worker cosplay build

Submit

Would be awesome to do a Eustace Bagge build were this not so freaking rare.

This thing is just fun as hell. Picked it up at SL125 fresh out of NG+ cause I was tired of my previous weapons. It's surprisingly good and a lot of fun to use in PvE. Not sure about PvP myself, but I see a lot of people is having fun there as well!

Submit

Raw +10 on a dex build just to mess with people who thought I'd only be using curved swords and scythes

Submit

A great hammer that you can use at SL1 with Knight's Ring

Submit

Only dumb fat Casuls would use such a trash weapon!!
PKCS is so much better!
Real Pros and skilled players only ever use PKCS, the best weapon gaming history!

I love this hammer. I'm a Ledo's main in PvP, but I decided to use this mostly as a joke because virtually no one uses this in pvp. It actually ended up being more effective than I anticipated.

It's super low weight means I can easily wear enough armor for infinite tank poise (45.85) without havels ring. Plus I still have enough space for an offhand straight sword or estoc. The range leaves something to be desired but a buffed three hit combo (R1 L2 R1) can dish out 700+ damage. It's small size often fools people using other ultras as well, I can tell people are never under the impression that I can tank whatever they throw at me when I'm wielding this weapon.

Overall fun weapon to use, I definitely don't win as many duels when using this thing compared to Ledo's. But, it's good fun and still effective even against the most sweaty, weapon swapping, gundyr spamming tryhards if used well, and paired with an offhand. Still haven't tried invasions with this thing though, only duels at Pontiff's and the Undead Arena.

Why does everybody hate this weapon so much! It´s a great early game hammer.
It has greathammer poise, low requirements in str, end and vit and spinbash (R1 L2 R1 combo).
Due to its lower stamina cost you can swing it a lot more than the Spiked mace which makes up for its lower damage.
I beat Curse-Rotted Greatwood, Crystal Sage, Deacons of the Deep (1st try) and Abyss Watchers (3rd try) with it despite being a complete noob, so it can´t be that bad.

Submit

Not as easy to 1 shot people as spiked mace.. but worth the extra buffs to bonk someone out in 1 true combo... Idk why this is so under used... I love it.. then again I love the troll life too

Submit

Finally, Angus McFife cosplay here I come!

Submit

I have literally never seen this drop

Submit

I wish it had the overhead greataxe r1's

Submit

Sometimes the power is in the fun, not the AR. And this beautiful bonking machine is just that: fun.

Submit

Love this weapon used at all way though combi with fire gem good amount of damage to anyone or anything and with special attack getting about 780 damage max out good enough for me as it does not take half as much stamina to swing to other weapons

Submit

I was looking for raw weapons for my sorcerer run and this was my mvp. 390 ar for its weight and its poise damage is nothing to sneeze at. It trades range but it has more ar and stun lock than the raw greatswords.

Warcraft 3 Uther Lightbringer build incoming

This thing, in my opinion really shines when infused with Raw on lower level builds. If youre only going to 2hand, you just need 12 STR and youre set. The damage increase from Raw outweighs scaling for a decent while, and no matter how much STR you pump for this thing, its always going to be mediocre at best, which is why Raw seems like the best candidate so you can make the most out of its low stat requirement and weight.

Compared to the large club, on raw infusion this wiki states at both weapons +10 the wooden hammer has 20 more AR while also having lower weight and requirements. However, on Mugenmonkey, the large club beats the wooden hammer by 7 AR. Maybe the wiki needs to be updated for the large club? Either way, the wooden hammer is still very efficient for a low level or gouge build.

MALLET AQUIRED!

Sl 98 in the arena murdering everyone on pc with this bonk stick. This baby is amazing. Dont know why all the hate. Can get huge damage with the r1 wa r1 combo. Can you not even land one hit with this thing? Thats pretty much all it takes.

Submit

I got this 2nd try with no item discovery boosting items and base luck at 9

Submit

Tried it with a pyro build. The damage is too low unfortunately even when you put it on fire. I'm using the mace right now and it's much better.

Submit

It's not about the AR. It's about sending a message.

Stop! It's time! To hammer things!

I don't care if this is the weakest GH, it is too *****ing hilarious not to use.

Submit

At 11 luck, with a +3 covetous gold serpant rings and bronze coins, I just had to kill 167 of the hammer guys to get a single drop.

Submit

Who else remembers when this wasn't even in the game?

Submit

Time to clobbah dat dere Kirbeh!

Oh, this game is this for comedy! RIPE!

Submit

It is quite potent, if I may say so, considering it’s really light and has all the advantages of great hammers. I’m using it and at minimal requirements it makes mush of pretty much everything at the beginning, and like I said in a previous comment, with bleed infusion this weapon is really good.

Submit

ARM tutorial.

Submit

with fire infusion it's a very good starting weapon for a strength pyromancie build, along with fire clutch, and later in game you could switch out the infusion for chaos or dark; since both infusions scale with strength, fth, and int the damage really stacks up, even then there are some other choices that may be better. It's just a strange well rounded weapon.

Submit

What the heck is the droprate on this thing?

Submit

Fastest way to farm for this is from the Dilapidated Bridge bonfire. Run back to where the Evangelist is on the platform, kill the Hammer using villager underneath, and then use the shortcut to the bonfire to get back in a few seconds.

Submit

The perfect crab slayer.

Submit

At +9, I have 97 poison buildup with poison infusion and 73 bleed buildup with bleeding infusion.

Submit

This weapon has very high damage for fire and deep infusions.
