Hammers
Hammers are slow weapons that pack a punch. They knockback opponents once hit.
The hammer's special attack can also stun enemies in addition to providing more damage, which can be used in conjunction with some other weapon and increase their damage.
Later, we will go deeper into how to maximize the potential of using a hammer.

Hammer Magicites
Magicites are special gems that can help the player's weapon have added effects. Some magicite effects may be powerful but will have some consequence in exchange.
How to Acquire Magicites
Magicites can be acquired by finding them in chests in the overworld. Special 5-star Magicites can be locked in red chests behind special doors that can only be opened with the Leytstaf.
Magicites can also be obtained through the Magicite Shop. At first, before obtaining all types of weapons, the player can only get random magicites for all weapons for every 5 magicite fragments the player exchanges. Once obtaining all weapon types, the player can create magicities for specific weapons for every 10 magicite fragments.

Best Hammer Magicite Combinations
While the hammer is a slow weapon, it also has higher attack than the other melee weapons. They are not the best for bosses since they are slow and would need charging to reach its maximum potential but are helpful in the overworld, especially if you don't play brashly.
When used with certain magicites, the hammer is able to act like a large AoE weapon that can be used from a distance. Magicite effects can compound so that the special attack can incur many additional attacks after use.
If the player does not mind getting some damage or might even want damage because they are relying on low vitality for increased capabilities such as when using the Chain and Sickle with certain magicites, they can also rely on getting attacked while doing the special attack to increase their damage output.
The boomerang has a couple of magicites that enhance its capabilities when it attacks enemies that are stunned. Since the hammer has a natural stunning ability with its special attack, it's the number one pair for this, given accessories such as the Mole's Anklet or the Cherry Blossom Anklet are not used. The hammer can also be enhanced with the Knockout magicite so that even normal attacks have the chance to stun the opponent.

| Mob Killer | Tremors, Blast, Lightning Mallet, Wide Impact |
