User blog comment:Lord Loss/Discussion of the Week: Hammers/@comment-4212769-20120729134653

Hammer was my first weapon that I really liked and used often. As MH3 as my first game I had no problems alone and before I went online I had LS already...

I normally only use them when I fight a monster that hasn't got a severable tail or I have someone else to do cut the tail. I like them more in 3rd gen games because it just feels awkward for me in MHFU with the combos.

Kirin isn't much harder with hammer than with LS I think because with the ESP in the superpound I'm not vulnurable after bouncing off what is harder with LS when it turns and turns and you just can't get the horn...

Monsters I use them often against: Doboruberuku, Barroth and Uragaan (in Tri) (I really can't remember what I used them for in MHFU... not too often, I'd say...)

My favorite Hammer is the Rathalos Hammer (Red and Silver look both cool, don't know if there's an Azure one so I didn't see it till now). I like the design, the stats and, the most important part, the roaring. XD Best sounding Hammer IMO. :D

I like other weapons more (LS, SA, Bow) but they're are still a great weapon and I like them very much. :)
