Although it has high accuracy, the low damage output of the '''hammer''' makes it a poor choice after the earliest floors. Keep an eye out for a good [[mace]], [[morningstar]], or [[spiked flail]] to replace it. Even a [[whip]] is often a better weapon, particularly if it has a brand such as [[electrocution]].
