Thunder hammer op or not?
Had the advantage, laying into this guy as he demolishes two of my teammates then he just dashes forward and hits me one time at full health and I die instantly... from the sprinting attack? Not sure...

Thunder Hammer is insanely OP. Like to the point of exploit.

Not sure if PVP and PVE use the same balance, but yeah in PVP it is way overpowered right now.

In PVE its a "lost half your health to ranged mobs during one or two swings" stick. Clears out the chaff really good, tho.

Infuriating at the moment. Making PvP unplayable.

sprint melee opens up enemies to pistol shots, and the hammer has the biggest gap closer out of all the sprint attacks. Also, built right those dangerous ranged units can be jetpack slammed into and instantly executed.

The issue with the thunderhammer getting hit by ranged unit isnt unique to it. ALL melee have to deal with getting pinged by ranged units until they close the gap.

The thunderhammer is very good in PVE because it has massive damage, range, and cleave. It just suffers in the beginning because all the good perks are in the butt end of the perk tree and its relatively slow.

all of the other weapons he has acces to is just as good or better at dealing dameg.
so the problem whit the thunderhammer is it is to slow conpared to its damege output

PVE base thunderhammer has more dmg than the green tier fencing one. The games got a few things to get right, but in OPS TH is op as all hell.

Thunder Hammer is by far the best melee weapon for assault. Insane horde clearing ability and can easily open up a majoris blocking along with hitting anything near. If you're not top melee damage by far using it when a match ends you're doing it wrong.
