The Top 5 Best Hammers in Monster Hunter World: Iceborne

[@dongshenghan1473]

been using the SLAP hammer. I don't know how good it is in comparison but the comedic value is absolutely unbeatable

[@rerroubai]

Lightbreak Hammer is my precious since I acquired it :D Love the video, Thanks :)

[@StormEcho]

Glad you enjoyed it! You almost can't go wrong with Lightbreak weapons in this game, especially the heavy hitters like Switch Axe, Greatsword, and Hammer! (Nice profile icon!)

[@harrisoncleverley633]

Very handy video, nice to know I was already heading in the right direction:D keep up the work!

[@gamesmash9859]

How do you rate the Polaris hammer for end game? The frostfang one. As for favorite hammers, I like the rajang one because it goes blondes when you charge. But admittedly I've only played world and it has some pretty average weapon designs.

[@StormEcho]

the Polaris was in my rankings at number 7 - quite solid thanks to the natural purple and high affinity, but held back a bit by the lower raw relative to other endgame hammers. If you're fighting things that are ice-weak, or at least not ice resistant, it can wreck shop! Also, I 100% agree - I love the Super Saiyan Smasher!

YOOOOO HAMERS

[@StormEcho]

STOP! HAMMER TIME!!

[@hollowvolocaloid6062]

Yes!!! He's back!!! (Hope for a gunlance list soon)

[@StormEcho]

I'm back!! Sometimes the hardest step back is the first one. I already have stats and screenshots pulled for Glaive, Gunlance, and LBG so those three are next! Then Hunting Horn and by my count it's finished!

[@hollowvolocaloid6062]

@@StormEcho i believe so, bet rise will be a harsh mistress cus of the updates

[@StormEcho]

@@hollowvolocaloid6062 I'm still not sure how I want to tackle it. I think to start I'll do "the best weapons for early game" or something since those will remain static. Not sure yet!

[@sterben4469]

What about All the javi weapons? I mean there is one for every Element. Isnt them strong because u can Level up all of them?

[@StormEcho]

Safi weapons are all really good, especially the Blast variants, but I DQed them when I made these videos due to the multiplayer-only siege mechanics. Now that the siege is more viable solo, they should be considered, usually around the #4-#2 slot depending on weapon!

[@swaxy_boi1901]

What about savage devil hammer consummate hammer?

[@StormEcho]

Massive raw! But, somewhat outclassed by other Dragon options - Nergigante competes, Stygian is probably better, and Fatalis obviously obliterates it. If you're using it purely for dragon, Alatreon is also better. Not a bad hammer by any means though! And, it's craftable quite early.

[@swaxy_boi1901]

@@StormEcho thanks! your vids are so helpful to me!

[@Nimbus840]

My favorite hammer is the defender hammer lol

[@StormEcho]

Defender goes in HARD with that blast, respect for that!

[@crimsonclover1588]

You did not mention Safijiva Blast Hammer? It’s a very good hammer as well.

[@StormEcho]

I have chosen not to do any Safi or Kjarr in these countdowns due to RNG and, formerly, being heavily multiplayer-gated. Safi Blast would probably be third best if I included it, though!

[@OtakuJuanma2]

IDK if you care about pronunciation, but you acknowledged it so I'll become THAT guy: if it is Italian it's "Buona Flo-reh-shen-zah" (also it means good blossoming)

[@TheVeiledMonarch]

Lightbreak hammer is the next in my sights

[@robloxepicadventures]

How do you get the gun handle skin?

[@dyslexicbien]

Where can you get the revolver hammer on iceborne?

[@zifir4803]

never. its in rise

[@dyslexicbien]

@@zifir4803 ohh okay, thats why. Thanks tho

[@MickTottenham123]

I appreciate u

[@StormEcho]

Why, thank you!! I appreciate you!

[@TheReal_Goji]

Can someone give me advice i use max defender hammer

[@1974Teebone]

No juicy well done hammer? Have you seen its raw? Eternal blue sharpness but you’ll almost never need to resharpen.

[@StormEcho]

It's a fun gimmick hammer for solo hunting, and very funny smacking enemies with a slab of ham - but it would probably make 4th honorable mention at best xD

[@Frost.x7x]

Hammers beast weapon in game without a doubt 😉 nothing more satisfying that absolutely rocking dragons with a big blunt hammer and knocking them out. Nvm the fact you get to straight up UngaBunga the shit outa monsters once you knock them the F out 😂😂 Nothing better

[@natethehunter1911]

Wait gun hammer?!?! How do I get it!?!?

[@natethehunter1911]

Ok I feel lied to. The gun hammer is in fact not in Mhw Iceborne

[@StormEcho]

The gun hammer is in MH4U and MHRise but not in World. It's still my favorite but not in this specific iteration!

[@StormEcho]

@@natethehunter1911 Sorry! I think of all MH Games as a continuum so when I think of my favorite hammer of all time I think back to older games.

[@natethehunter1911]

@@StormEcho oh im sorry i just didn’t listen correctly 😅. Still a great video!!

[@1cbc81]

Is the Guild palace hammer good?

[@StormEcho]

Um, it's pretty solid but mostly good for High Rank and early G/Master. It gets outscaled by mid-lategame. But, as with all weapons it is only like 20% worse than most of the best (except maybe Fatalis), so if you don't mind slightly slower hunts it'll still serve very well!

[@xJOJOx31]

Bad list honestly, only fatalis n raging brachy are top 5 here. If u want an all around hammer top 5 u should have mentioned at least safi n acid glavenus

[@StormEcho]

Unfortunately Safi never makes the cut as non-craftable RNG weapons aren't consistent for players to see or use. It'd be like making a top 5 for 4 / 4Ultimate and including 140 Guild Quest weapons
