Steel Hammer

Tool

A robust steel hammer useful for shaping blocks and deconstruction.

Notes

The Steel Hammer is a tier-3 tool primarily used for shaping blocks and deconstruction, notably the hammer can remove blocks when equipped. It deals low damage (1) and minimal animal damage (x0.2), making it ineffective as a weapon; its role is purely construction-focused. A practical tip: because the hammer costs 6 calories per use and has 2500 max durability, you should save your energy for this tool's intended purpose and leave combat to proper weapons.
