Storm Hammer

The Storm Hammer is a melee weapon introduced in the 10.0.0 update. It is found in the Melee section of the Shop.

Appearance
The hammer has a big blue head with a lightning symbol in the middle, as well as a blue handle with a golden bottom. When it swings, the head opens up and shoots out lightning in a ring pattern.

Tips

 * Use this to mow down heavily armored players due to its ridiculously high damage.
 * If there's an enemy player close to you, use it as distraction because this will cause players to stay out of its blast radius, leaving time for an escape.
 * This can be used for spawn trapping enemies. (Or for camping uses)

Counters

 * Stay out of range as its mobility plus the nightmarish damage along with its blast radius will near-instantly kill you.
 * Use a weapon with knockback to stop the player catching up with you. A good choice for this is the Mines Launcher due to its fast firing rate and its ammo, which are effectively mini traps that last 1.5 seconds.
 * If possible stay under the player, as the Storm Hammer can't hit things below it.
 * If stuck in a melee fight wait for the person to shoot the lightning, then charge through them and attack from behind. The Storm Hammer has trouble hitting things behind it.
 * Its users can't hit any enemies high up in the air. Therefore, the Jetpack or Rocket Jump can solve the problems they cause, but you need to avoid some unsuspected surprises, like how they will attempt to shoot you with projectile weapons.

Upgrades

 * N/A.

Trivia

 * This weapon is probably based off of Mjölnir, the hammer of Thor, as it has a lightning symbol on it and is mainly blue in color.
 * The Fire Orb and Storm Hammer are the only melee weapons to have area damage.
 * It is the most expensive coin weapon not only in the melee section, but it is the most expensive coin in the whole entire game, as its cost is 999.
 * Its lethality was reduced to 27 and attack to 84 in the 10.0.7 update.
 * It is the first strongest melee weapon in this game.
 * The area of effect of the Storm Hammer can possibly go through walls.
 * It's the first melee weapon with Area Damage.
