Game Mechanics
- Use: One-handed
- War hammers do more damage per hit on average than maces, but less than morning stars. Since war hammers have multiple damage types and base RT lower than morning stars, they're more well-suited to heavy use of assault weapon techniques, Two Weapon Combat, or both than they are to single aimed strikes with one weapon.
