Monster Hunter Wilds Hammer overview - moveset and how to use

How do you use the Monster Hunter Wilds Hammer? The Hammer is a heavy weapon with striking mobility and a moveset packed with combo attacks. It also has a high chance to stun any monster unfortunate enough to be on the receiving end of its trademark golf swing, leaving wounds and weak spots wide open.

The Hammer can be considered a blunt alternative to the MHW Great Sword. Both offer the satisfaction of wielding a massive Monster Hunter Wilds weapon, but the Hammer has the edge in both speed and agility. It’s an ideal weapon for players who prefer to attack and ask questions later in Monster Hunter Wilds, but its inability to guard demands careful timing. Here’s how to master the Hammer and land those powerful swings when it counts.
