Rusty Hammer

The Rusty Hammer is in the chest in the graveyard, with the Rusty Shovel. You will use it constantly: every building you place starts as a construction site, and you build it by hitting it with a hammer. It also smashes the pots cluttering the church.

On your toolbar it adds Smithing mastery +1, which the furnace, the anvil and loading a firewood shed need. It is the only source of Smithing at the start, since every branch begins at 0.

Notes

  • Building with a hammer is a Building job, not Smithing. Construction sites need Building mastery 2, which your axe and pickaxe provide; the hammer only has to be on your toolbar to hit them.
  • The Bronze Hammer adds 2 Smithing, which is what Bronze Details need.
