The Pwnhammer is a Hardmode hammer that is able to destroy Demon Altars and Crimson Altars, blessing the world with one of the six Hardmode ores. It is always dropped by the Wall of Flesh. The Pwnhammer has a sparkle effect when used, giving off a good deal of light even in total darkness. Altars can only be destroyed in Hardmode worlds, ie. worlds where the Wall of Flesh has been defeated.
Each Altar spawns new amounts of Hardmode ores. The first destroyed Demon or Crimson Altar blesses the world with Cobalt or Palladium Ore, the second with Mythril or Orichalcum Ore, and third with Adamantite or Titanium Ore. The ore generated upon destroying an Altar is randomly determined upon smashing the first three Altars, similar to the naturally-spawning ores. Subsequent destroyed Altars repeats this process, generating more Cobalt or Palladium, then more Mythril or Orichalium, then more Adamantite or Titanium.
The best Modifier is Light for faster wall removing.
Notes
- If a player attempts to destroy a Crimson/Demon Altar with the Pwnhammer before the Wall of Flesh has been defeated, it will behave like a normal hammer; the player will lose half of their current health.
Trivia
- The name is a reference to a series of levels in Super Mario Bros. X, a game Redigit has previously worked on.
- Though the Pwnhammer cannot be crafted, it resembles the theming of items crafted of Hallowed Bars.
- There is a glitch where the Pwnhammer will replace a fishing rod and you can fish with the hammer in a world not in hardmode.
- The "Pwn" part of the Pwnhammer's name is a popular gaming term which denotes success and domination, usually in multiplayer. A succeeding player is "pwning" while a failing player is being "pwned".
