- Not to be confused with Hammer or Militia Hammer.
The sledgehammer is a 2-hit melee weapon, which functions identically to the sapper axe. The weapon is only given to Russian, Polish and Spanish partisans. It has 2 attack directions, left and up. This weapon makes a metallic sound when hitting a person/horse.
Design[]
It has a wooden handle and a detailed metal head with the front and back smaller than the middle.
Due to handle imprecision when holding the hammer, the handle begins originally thicker as it progresses to the hammerhead, becoming smaller as the handle clips into the hand. It is wielded like a Sapper axe: horizontally, in both hands.
Usage[]
The Sledgehammer is "mainly used for DESTRUCTION of sapper fortifications", but the tool can also serve as a weapon of mass destruction. You can never go wrong with a hammer, after all. Plus, its fun to troll with.
Pros & Cons[]
Pros:
- Two hit kill: 60% damage per hit.
- Sappers' fortification are quickly destroyed.
- Just as intimidating as the sapper axe.
Cons:
- Similar weaknesses to the Sapper Axe
- Rare and only found on one class
Trivia[]
- It is simply named "Hammer" in-game.
