Stagbreaker
The early AoE hammer that hits through walls. How to craft the Stagbreaker and when to use it.

- Tier
- 1
- Type
- Two-handed hammer
- Damage
- Blunt (AoE)
- Station
- Workbench
The Stagbreaker is your first crowd-control weapon, crafted right after Eikthyr. Each slam sends a shockwave through the ground that damages everything nearby, even through walls and floors.
Crafting
You make it at a Workbench once you have the Hard Antler from Eikthyr, plus Wood, Leather Scraps, and a Deer Trophy.
When to Use It
It is heavy and slow, so it is bad one-on-one. Where it shines is clearing Greydwarf packs, dealing with enemies dug in below you, and breaking into Burial Chambers full of skeletons.
