Power Hammer

[wingspan66]

So I was using the power hammer and found it sucked balls. For example, I charged up and rammed some guy and he lived, so i charged about half and rammed again, still alive. Anyone else agree?

Was he on your team?

Was he on your team?

LOL

Seriously... I killed vehicles with the alt fire...

[wingspan66]

Was deathmatch- no teams

I remember the original UT hammer being godly, but I skipped a few releases since.

use primary fire then.

BTW, i fragged with impacat hammer in UT3 demo even more than all time playing UT
(not many time played though) about 10 frags in 6 matches. Never though had chance to success use alt fire

Tried to push off shield belt from player, but failed.

So it can be used against vehicles?

The secondary fire counter attacks a charging hammerer's primary?

Well the secondary fire is EMP, so it would be neat if it pwned vehicles :x

[wvuabojg]

That won't work on players then. Primary is to splash infantry and secondary carries an EMP charge.

Impact Hammer Altfire does as it was designed. It knocks power ups safely off opponents without destroying them. Great for stealing someones Udamage and Shield suddenly

[wvuabojg]

i want to try out the secondary fire on a vehicle very badly.

I'm surprised no one has had more fun with the Impact Hammer online yet...

Primary fire fully charged will gib someone instantly. Secondary fire is an EMP blast that has a couple uses: primarily its used to damage vehicles (pretty powerful if you're brave enough to charge an enemy vehicle and pull it off); as a side benefit, it can also be used to knock powerups off a player. Shieldbelt, U Damage, Berserk... the EMP turns them into a powerup pinata.

Primary fire of Impact Hammer in UT3 is easy to get some frags with Haven't really tried the secondary actually.

[Brutal]

Loaded up to the max and blow em ALL!!!

I LOVE the hammer. I am usually in the top 3-5 at Cainslair when I just hammer away at people during the match. I can hammer jump super high with it.

If you arent able to frag someone with the hammer. You might be lagging some. I do think when I have played some that the hammer appears to be running but I dont ever make contact. Just have to restart the primary and it starts working again.

I need to work on that.

I've never been able to get them right in either UT or UT2.
