"The hammah that John Henry swung, -Onah L. Spencer, _John Henry_. Early 20th cent. |
This weapon falls into the Maces & Flails category. It is a one handed weapon, and it is better for the strong.
Although it has high accuracy, the low damage output of the hammer makes it a poor choice after the earliest floors. Keep an eye out for a good mace, morningstar, or spiked flail to replace it. Even a whip is often a better weapon, particularly if it has a brand such as electrocution.
