Hammer

One of three SWL Weapons that generate Hate, necessary to guarantee monsters hitting the user and therefore Tank damage off of other players, the other two being Shotgun and Chaos.

You can store up to 100 Rage by attacking with a Hammer and by being attacked (even if you are not currently attacking with your Hammer). The Hammer meter can be filled twice. The first time the meter is filled it represents 50 Rage, the second time the meter is filled it represents 100 Rage.

Whenever you attack an enemy and you have less than 50 Rage, regardless of the results of the attack, you will gain an amount of Rage defined by the ability you attacked with. The exact amount of Rage gained can be found in the description of each ability. Whenever you are attacked, regardless of the results of the attack, you will gain 1 Rage.

All of your Hammer Power attacks consume Rage when your Rage meter is full. The unique bonuses that are granted to your Hammer Power attacks only require that your Rage meter be filled once.

Rage does not decay.

Many of Hammer's Passive abilities directly affect its active abilities, including several that affect more than one active ability.
