The most important thing about the blunt weapons category is that 2 out of the 5 magical weapons (the [[staff of wondrous smells]] and the [[thunder hammer]]) and 3 out of the 8 named weapons ([[Turox]], [[Gorovits family hammer]] and [[Neerc Se-ulb]]) are in this category. And if you dare use the [[holy banana]] to strike the enemy, this too count as a blunt weapon.
There are 4 types of weapon in 'blunt weapons' category: The blacksmith's the (normal) hammer, the mace, the war hammer and the quarterstaff. == Types of Blunt Weapons == === Hammer ===
== Hammer ==
The one-handed hammer (or blacksmith's hammer) is a rare blunt weapon. Hammers are generated in a wide variety of metallic materials.<br>
Hammers deliver '''striking''' damage, and have a pathetically small blocking modifier of 800 due to their tiny size and average roundness. However their small size lends itself well to making all hammers light - though still heavier than a dagger or short sword.<br>
* Weak in the long run, unless using a lightning hammer
=== Mace ===
Maces are very common two-handed striking weapons. Maces are generated in a wide variety of metallic materials.<br>
Maces deliver '''striking''' damage, and have good roundness and size values leading to a respectable 2100 block modifier.<br>
* Requires 14 ASTR to wield in one hand despite doing damage comparable to a one-handed weapon
=== War Hammer ===
Two-handed war hammers are more common than their single-handed counterparts. War hammers are generated in a wide variety of metallic materials, but can also be generated with an [[ommel tooth]] head.<br>
War hammers deliver '''striking''' damage, and have a mediocre blocking modifier of 1200 due to their small size - they are only slightly bigger than a regular hammer.
* Although the war hammer is more accurate, the [[Axes|battle axe]] is a better option in all others aspects
=== Quarterstaff ===
Completely different from the other weapons here, the quarterstaff is a common two-handed polearm that happens to use the blunt weapons skill. Quarterstaves are frequently produced of wooden materials, but can also be found in [[arcanite]], [[octiron]] and [[ommel bone]].<br>
Quarterstaves deliver '''striking''' damage, and have a respectable block modifier of 2200 mostly due to their extreme size (or length in this case). <br>
* Wooden materials reach their peak much earlier than metal, which leads to sub-par damage output and no room to upgrade for later in the game without a scroll of change material
== Banana = Other === '''Frying pan''' '''Rolling pin''' '''Banana''' Bananas are very common one-handed fruit. They can only be found made of banana flesh. A banana may be eaten to turn it into a banana peel - a whip class weapon.<br>Bananas deliver '''striking''' damage, and have the smallest block modifier of all weapons at 300.<br>Unfortunately broken bananas cannot be repaired at a smith or tailor, and must be fixed using a scroll of repair.
Bananas have an average strength modifier, making them "sturdy" at base values but since this can be affected by material, normal bananas are quite fragile.<br>They have a very low primary material density, meaning changing the material of the banana will have little effect on its weight. Bananas consist of a peel made of the main material and the contents of the banana itself which makes up the majority of its weight - by default these are both made of [[banana flesh]].
Bananas are attached to [[Nefas]].
* Can only be repaired with a scroll of repair material
== Others =='''Misc''' Many other items also benefit from the blunt weapons skill, if you for whatever reason felt the urge to sue them as a weapon:* Severed limbs* [[ArmBone]]s* [[BoneBottle]]s* Food items* [[BottleHorn]]s* Sticks* etc... == Magical Blunt Weapons == * [[CarrotStaff of wondrous smells]]* [[HornThunder hammer]] === Artifact Blunt Weapons === * [[LegGorovits family hammer]]* [[LoafNeerc Se-ulb]]* [[Oil lampTurox]]* [[StickY'yter Durr]]
