What is the War Hammer?

Your maximum HP will be increased by Constitution, but only if you have the time. This should not be your primary Attribute. Otherwise, you will take a huge hit on attack.
- War Hammer Weapon Mastery

The Best Weapons to Accompany
The War Hammer’s recommended build works best when used with a weapon of the same type as War Hammer or a DPS weapon. This build should deal as much damage possible. You can choose to use the Ice Gauntlet or Fire Staff to make it less efficient.
The Great Axe, which has excellent crowd control and uses Strength Attribute points, is a great choice. It can be used in conjunction with War Hammer to make enemies immobile and ineffective in fighting you. However, you will be using two heavy, two-handed weapons which slows you down.
The Hatchet is another great choice. It not only has the Feral Rush ability, which rushes enemies to attack quickly and knock them down, but also self-healing. Both weapons can regenerate HP so you won’t need food or Potions. It can also scale with Strength.
