Belly Smash

Current:

5 1 10 Hammer Attack. Inflicts Blindness condition to adjacent foes (3...6...7 seconds) if target foe is knocked down.

Proposed:

5 1 12 Hammer Attack. Inflicts Cracked Armor condition (3...6...7 seconds) if target foe is knocked down.

---

I don't know why a hammer war would need to blind something. I really don't.

---

Counter Blow

Current:

4 Hammer Attack. Causes knock-down if target foe is attacking.

Proposed:

5 1 Hammer Attack. Interrupts an action. Interrupt effect: causes knockdown if that action targeted one of your allies. Interrupt fails with Tactics 7 or less. Knockdown fails with Strength 7 or less.

---

Previously, this skill was a nuisance of the highest order. It can still be a nuisance in this form, but it gives wars something better to do than to camp other wars all game.

---

Crude Swing

Current:

5 5 Hammer Attack. Attack all adjacent foes for +1...16...20 damage.

Proposed:

5 12 Hammer Attack. Hits all adjacent foes. Deals +5...25...30 damage and causes knockdown to moving foes.

---

AoE Bull's is something that I wouldn't mind seeing on hammers.

---

Enraged Smash

Current:

5 5 Elite Hammer Attack. Gives you 1...3...4 strike[s] of adrenaline if you hit. Deals +10...34...40 damage and causes knockdown if your target was moving.

Proposed:

5 4 Elite Hammer Attack. Gives you 1...3...4 strike[s] of adrenaline if you hit. Deals +4...7...8 damage for each of your fully charged adrenal skills and causes knockdown if your target was not moving.

---

Relatively small change.

---

Forceful Blow

Current:

4 Elite Hammer Attack. Deals +10...34...40 damage. Remove target foe's stance. Inflicts Weakness condition (5...17...20 seconds). Unblockable.

Proposed:

4 Elite Hammer Attack. Deals +5...21...25 damage. Causes knockdown. Lose all adrenaline.

---

An elite that's not a knockdown is not viable for a traditional hammer warrior. If a war wants to do damage, they will use Eviscerate, not Forceful Blow.

---

Heavy Blow

Current:

5 Hammer Attack. Deals +1...24...30 damage and causes knock-down if target foe is Weakened. Lose all adrenaline.

Proposed:

5 Hammer Attack. Deals +1...24...30 damage and causes knock-down if target foe is Dazed or Weakened. Lose all adrenaline.

Proposed:

10 6 Hammer Attack. Causes knock-down. Causes knock-down if blocked. Failure with Hammer Mastery 12 or less.

---

For when they NEED to be knocked down RIGHT NOW. It's somewhat similar to Shock in that regard.

---

Magehunter's Smash

Current:

8 Elite Hammer Attack. Causes knock-down. Unblockable if target foe is enchanted.

Proposed:

8 1 Elite Hammer Attack. Causes knock-down. Unblockable and inflicts Daze (1...5...6 seconds) if target was enchanted or casting a spell.

---

In a word, caster rape.

---

Mighty Blow

Current:

7 Hammer Attack. Deals +10...34...40 damage.

Proposed:

10 2 8 Hammer Attack. Deals +10...34...40 damage. Inflicts Deep Wound (3...13...15 seconds) and knocks down adjacent foes if target foe is knocked down.

---

So you can run Magehunter's and still have AoE KD on KotH.

---

Overbearing Smash

Current:

5 20 Hammer Attack. Deals +1...16...20 damage. If target foe is knocked down, this attack inflicts Dazed condition (1...7...8 second[s]).

---

Minor, straightforward buff.

---

Staggering Blow

4 1 Hammer Attack. Inflicts Weakness condition (5...17...20 seconds).

Proposed:

5 1 8 Hammer Attack. Interrupts an action and inflicts Weakness condition (5...17...20 seconds). Interrupt effect: inflicts Dazed condition (1...4...5 second[s]) if that action was a spell.
