Polarities Mod/Warhammers

Warhammers are a new type of melee weapon introduced by the Polarities Mod. They are swung over the player's head like a broadsword, but inflict heavy knockback and the Hammered debuff, lowering enemies' defense by a value and for a time dependent on the specific warhammer used. Additionally, only the hammer's head has a hitbox, meaning they will miss if used too close to smaller targets. However, some warhammers have a right-click functionality that functions like a different type of weapon instead, halving their damage and knockback and preventing them from inflicting Hammered but being much easier to aim with.

Types
There are currently 28 different warhammers available, 12 of which are Hardmode-exclusive.
