[edit] Properties

• Maximum damage range: 19 - 35.

Hammer Mastery skills make the hammer one of the best weapons for knocking down enemies, interrupting their current spells or attacks while inflicting damage and rendering them useless for a few seconds.

Hammers with maximum damage have been observed with attribute requirements ranging from 7 to 13. Max damage unique, collector and weaponsmith hammers have an attribute requirement of 9 in Hammer Mastery.

Note: This is a list of all the different appearances a hammer may have. It is completely independent of its stats and modifiers; for example a Foehammer may be as effective as a Runic Hammer if they share the same inscription and modifiers.
