Hammer shot uses

[Hiroshi]

Hammer shot has been a odd mod to use and I'd like to know what weapon you'd use it with and on what occasion ?

Also wouldn't it make more sense if the mod was crit chance/crit damage rather than crit damage/status chance ?

[GunsForBucks]

It shines in things like assault or lmg style weapons where both can help greatly in a build.

Try using it on weapons that can do both crit and status, instead of strictly crit weapons.

What if I told you that using Vigilante Armaments would not only net you more damage but also more consistent damage than Hammer Shot.

Why you forma in a Vazarin polarity for Hammershot instead of a Madurai for Point Strike, which you will absolutely always use on a Soma, aside from the fact that it's far more flexible than a Vazarin?

Why would you ever use Hammershot over Bladed Rounds in that instance?

Better to use Argon Scope.

There isn't even one single scenario where using Hammer Shot would lead to the highest possible dps. It's simply a noob trap that either needs to be buffed or changed entirely. Magnum Force used to be in the same tier before DE buffed it some months ago.

I haven't used it so I can't compared the DPS but I remember a lot of builds included AS.

Agreed but Magnum Force is still a ♥♥♥♥ mod pick.

How would you buff hammer shot then ?

100 to critical and 60% to status chance = best mod now

[DuDun]

Back in the day I used to mod a Lanka with exclusively eletric and gas dmg, so Hammershot was very useful for being one of the few mods that could add status chance without adding another dmg type... Also, critical dmg. So muh lanka would allways trigger an area dmg into whatever it hit.

Of course, DE can't resist the urge to distribute unecessary mods to "further overkill mobs", so that little use of Hammershot also died... Plus we have Rivens now, yey. There are also countless more and easier ways to kill many mobs in an area.

So, yeah, now, it's completly useless.

It isn't like everyone has every mod.
