    The hammer is such a cathartic weapon. It's hard to get in with due to the commitment frames for each attack, and the range means you'll be outspaced in most situations, but when the monster gets stunned and you just get to pound all of your irritation and anger into its forehead using a weapon made of its bones,
    HOO BOY

      The number one reason why I gravitated towards the hammer was because of all the times the monster that kept hitting me back to back with no chance for me to evade and not letting me play the game. With the hammer, I can pay them back in full.

    hammer main here, don't know how many people know of this here, but there's an areal tactic called "ledge hopping", when you jump off a ledge, you start charging your hammer, then you can do a double jump back on the ledge with a cheap little mounting swing, when you find yourself in an ideal scenario you'll deal more damage than the hill spin attack, especially if you're rocking airborne, witch is a solid 30% damage buff to your sky strikes.

    Don't forget to grab any crystal burst, piercing pods and stagger nuts you can find ! when you charge your hammer you can use a slinger burst which flinches the monster and in most cases it will turn to you so you can release that sweet BBB+ clutch combo right into the head! also a bomb pod will dish out 200 dmg per slinger burst which often results into flinches too but not as good as the other. dragon pods burst will act like floating bombs which deal around 150dmg extra.

    I became a Hammer main by the end of base MHW, just before Iceborne. I always been a sucker for axes, so I saw that awesome Val Hazak "Hammer" and decided to try It. It was love at the first wall spinning/ledge hop spamming/Big bang. When I bought Iceborne, spinning like a Helicopter after a succesfull lvl 3 charge to the Head Clutch claw combo was the icing on the cake. And now with Safi, we can use Willian Birkin's arm as a weapon. Hope we get some RE2 layered armor soon.

    Airborne is an amazing skill to include on hammer.
    If, while sliding, you press X/jump, you can bring down ur hammer in a timed charged aerial smash downwards instead of the spin.
    When using airborn, well, it destroys faces. I actually have a video knocking safi jiiva out of his nova with a hammer.
    When mounting with the hammer, instead of a final attack like most weapons to knock down the monster, you can HOLD the attack button to charge your hammer up to three levels and then SMASH in the monster yo knock em down.
    Maybe I missed it,but i didnt see much of the big bang combo which is ur best dps when monster is knocked down and you have the time. You would press O on ps4 to bring down ur hammer in an overhead strike. If you hit, you can continue thr combo until a final massive slam.
    You can also work into the combo with the one used in the video. Basically level1 charge plus attack button, after the second strike switch to big bang attack.
    The combo above though is better for its KO values, while big bang does better dps on downed monsters.
    Hammer main here. 🥰

    • @pit6794
      @pit6794 4 роки тому +3

      It's true that big bang is your best dps option, but for it to be effective you have to be sure you can ensure the last hit. If you know you don't have enough time to get all the combo I'd recommend going for a charge level 3 attack maybe followed by clutch claw. Abusing big bang can be dangerous!

    • @painsenpai01

    3 step Headsniping because it's EASY with the hammer
    Step 1. Stand somewhere that the monster has to turn in order to face your direction.
    Step 2. Charge energy into hammer, then charge hammer to level 3.
    Step 3. Find where the monsters head will be when it turns around, stand still when you do the lvl 3 hammer attack.
    works everytime

    I run slugger 5 all the time. At the start of hunt, esp vs elder drags that dont aggro until you hit them. You put on rock steady, tenderize head (hammer is 1 hit tenderize) then you flinch shot into wall then you go ham on the head. You usually get double or triple downs on the monster right at the start

    I like to go Max Comf for my hammer sets, namely max Earplugs and Slugger. Makes roars a huge opening for big big stuns. Crit Slide is really fun too but hyper situational. Honestly, i see Hammer more as something like Crowd Control over straight damage. You do big enough snd consistent enough damage that i prefer to focus on KOs and Paralysis. It means my team gets more damage in because it holds still longer and it helps when i'm playing with new people.

    Thank you for posting a video about my favorite weapon in the game. I've been playing since Tri and I've been smashing faces in ever since. It's such an endlessly fun weapon to play with, and the satisfaction from a well timed golf swing swatting a rathalos out of the sky is unquantifiable.
    As people have already suggested, Airborne gives those spinny spins some extra oomph, and Affinity Slider is a must for going on the slip-n-slide.
    One of my favorite aspects of the Hammer in World/Iceborne is the directional influence in the air. Being able to change direction midair when charging after hopping off of a ledge leads to some wacky crazy shit, not to mention ez mounts and hella good damage. My favorite place to be is on a ledge or at the top of the hill, cause Aerial Hammer lives on

    Just recently I picked up the hammer and I found it to be one of the best weapons for punishing a monster's whiff. Pulverizing Punisher is a well-deserved name-- once a Rathian or something does its tail whip, I know exactly where that head is going to end up. Because the monster misses, I can punish it by:
    1) comboing into golf swing if it was close enough and the monster is wide open
    2) having a level 2 charge ready to close the distance between me and its face for a quick hit if the opening is small
    3) level 3 charge on its face if I'm close enough where option 2 would be inefficient.
    Then dodge out, observe the monster again, wait for the next opening, and repeat.
    The hammer has this great feeling of busting heads open due to reading and punishing monsters, and I love it.

  • @thevo4100
    @thevo4100 2 роки тому

    You can do the somersault attack by just charge running directly into special walls. You only need to be holding the trigger and you just go right in to the move. The root walls in the arena and elsewhere and the mushroom walls etc. You can aim yourself in a different direction as you jump off the wall, too.
    I use it by having my back to one of the walls. Then I hold charge and when the monster is close enough I aim the camera at it and just run backwards into the wall then hold up and you'll go towards the monster. If you don't need to aim you just press down on the stick and that's it. Carnage ensues.

    • @zipzip070
      @zipzip070 4 роки тому

      Might not always have time for it. Your positioning and distance from the monster can vary after flinch shot knockdowns, stuns, mounts, etc.... so the amount of time it takes you to close the distance will affect how much DPS time you really have. Some monsters get up faster than the full time for Big Bang as well (Diablos, for example). In those cases it's usually better to perform some variation of a charge release into followup and combo ending in upswing, or now a level 3 Brutal Big Bang into Clutch Claw combo or flinch shot.

    Still love hammer in this game, but I was going back to the older games recently and realized how much more I loved hammer before World.
    The sole reason for this is the move where you charge your hammer until you sheathe it or get hit. It feels unnecessary and redundant. It feels like it's just an extra step I have to take to get to the power that it's always had until now.
    That being said, the Screw Attack from a hill and the clutch claw attacks do feel great and I still love the weapon... just slightly less than before.

    Hammer made the game for me. Simple to approach but with a lot of nuance and requires discipline to truly realize its potential. Not a DPS monster like DBs, Bow or HBG, but still capable and extremely flexible. It is so easy to fit in Wide Range or other utility skills because you don't need any special or costly skills to make Hammer work. You also have zero defensive options outside of the standard roll, so you must learn monster movement and employ predictive combat in order to do well. Builds valuable skills for harder hunts. Also has a wide selection of awesome stylish weapons when you want to play fashion hunter.

    Slugger from a min maxer’s perspective: it rarely gives you an extra KO, so it’s rarely extra DPS. If it does run it, obviously. The other main reason to run Slugger is for scripting. There’s a generic script against Elders you can do for example, with Slugger 1. Wall bang > Charged Big Bang > CC Soften causing a KO.

    I like doing wex, crit eye, crit boost and single level of agitator for damage, handicraft if I can make use of it, beyond damage I like evade window as it lets me dodge roars etc.
    slugger is decent but I think it's most efficient at level 1 since that's where the biggest boost comes from (+20/30/40/50/60% increase, taking level 2 only gives a total increase of 8% compared to the 20% from first level). Airborne is a skill that can also be freely used!

    I love hammer, but I definitely need to practice more with it. If I'm hunting something with it's head low to the ground like the raths, then it's not too difficult,but everything else including smaller monsters are a pain for me.
    Also, I love how the space lord hammer looks, but it's kind of disappointing that it's almost basically a worse coral hammer.

    • @samurizzy
      @samurizzy 4 роки тому +1

      If you're having issues with taller monsters like Anjanath, focus on those skinny little legs. Impact damage focused on the legs, cause them to trip. Use the Clutch Claw to tenderize the legs to speed up this process.
      Just remember. If it cant stand, it can't fight.

    • @KatrinaAmaxas
      @KatrinaAmaxas 4 роки тому +1

      @@samurizzy Hmm, makes sense, I'll keep that in mind if I need to grind him for mats. I've also had problems finding a good hammer.
      The Guild Cross Mace is pretty decent, but other than that and the meme-y meat hammer, I'm not sure what to go with since I lack a sharp jewel to make the acid glav work.
