Let's Discuss Hammer!

[viratno2 146]

Able to test drive hammer m2 today. Just rocking, and by that I mean I was able to flip a dictator m2. I remember using DP when the score was 6-7 our advantage, and just mauling invaders.However,it's not too OP or stuff due to the constant nerfs and the limited shots, but with wasp it was damn fun. Planning to invest in m2 hammer until I get m2 wasp.

Just got the M1, and I'm having a hard time making it work better than the M1 Firebird. Any tips?

• There are 20 particles in each shot.

correction. there are 21. but, as you said, this gun is difficult to use effectively. one good trick is when an enemy (or a team if you wanna be that guy that everybody hates) comes up a ramp, and UP only, and if they are a light hull, obviously a bit of their tank will be airborne. shoot that bit, and they are suspended in the air for a second or two, allowing you to get another shot in, flipping them on their backs. it can also happen the first time.hammer when used with light hulls while doing a ring around your opponent (light or medium hulls guaranteed kills if all 63 pellets hit) is lethal. oh ya, guns with sensitive aim such as thunder , railgun, blah blah blah, shoot them at the side and they have wasted a shot.   the garage says that M0 hammer has 19 impact force. times 21. that is equal to 399. that is more than M0 rail. Peace out yall haters

The problem with hammer is that it only becomes good once you are close to upgrading it fully, and you simply don't have to waste as much crystals on the other turrets to achieve the same effect

[maxus_helios101 17]

Best parkour turret

[austen_pierce 1,948]

Hammer only beats fire on light hulls.

[SpeedyRailgun 183]

hammer is worthless!

[austen_pierce 1,948]

hammer is worthless!

If as your nick suggests you are a rail user you should know that Hammer always beats Rail, assuming the Rail is in range.

Depends on paints and maps.

I felt the same way... until I got the M1. Now it is my favorite turret, and for good reason.

[BGRAS 15]

TItan+Hammer = DEATH

Princess, I know that.

Hammer *can be* a good attacking turret, if you have Hunter or Viking and can use Double Damage to get one-shot kills.

 

I often used DD or "FREE" red cubes to attack in Serpuhov CTF and Polygon DM. But I didn't realize how effective this could be against light M2 and M3 hulls until yesterday in a Forest DM battle. In just 9 minutes, I scored 51 kills : 30 one-shot kills and 21 two-shot kills. The reasons were: many Hornets, some already hit and weakened, and the lack of Double Armor use (wasteful if you are going to get killed every 15 seconds, with or without it, in a dense DM environment). My score could have been higher if not for two or three strong Freeze that tended to ambush me (not going to waste Repairs for the same reason I just gave: someone else will finish me off fairly quickly). But they took much longer to get a kill, whereas I might shoot one or two while approaching a skirmish, two more close-in, and someone trying to finish me off. The longest string was 6 kills in 30 seconds, which surprised even me, as I thought the last two attackers were going to get me! The trick was to kill the opponents with minimal damage to myself. My final D/L ratio was 2.75 for the battle.

 

When going against tough Hammers (Premium accounts, well upgraded, Africa armor), it is frustrating how much damage you have to inflict to kill them. My only recourse sometimes was to use Shaft with DD (maximum kill power) and wait until a Firebird or Isida had already weakened them. The Africa paint affords no protection from any of these three turrets.

That is some of the reasons I despise hammers. They are so OP that light hulls are a no-no for them. But we are many that like mostly light hulls.

[austen_pierce 1,948]

When you get to M3 ranks, light hulls are toast anyway.

[fordmustang12345 3,910]

Give a wasp m3 devil paint then it might have a chance of surviving

[austen_pierce 1,948]

When Hammer fires, it looks like a sneeze.

 

The impact force looks like you've sneezed into your enemy's face.

 

I love it when this knocks off Rail's aim.

[deadmanrising 715]

reload is too slow, needs to be increased by 0.1 secs

[HaloScorpionV2 438]

Is it worth the m3? Its basically effective only with DD since a lot of people use med and heavy hulls

[Doctor.Noob 3,270]

At m4 and right map, unstoppable
