The fact that Wilds adapted the Keeping Sway Wirebug skill with the slinger instead of a Wirebug is nuts. Sunbreak Hammer was insanely fun and I couldn’t be happier that I’ll be able to continue with that playstyle in Wilds.
All these weapons look so damn good! I might just have to learn them all. Also can we talk about how Wilds seems to give female hunters actual armor? Like it’s not just combat bikinis it’s actually covering everything like the male sets do and I love it!
The hammer skin is a really promising sign that they have doubled down on making more unique and bonkers designs from the old generations of games, and also similar to Rise/Sunbreak, because 80% of the weapons in Worldborne were just Bone/Metal frame, with monster foreskin slapped onto the top of them. While this skin isnt meant to look like a monster that exists in the game, it DOES however suggest a more early/mid-game poison monster, either that or its a unique commission weapon, like the pizza cutter charge blade, sleepytime teddybear hammer, or the black falcon. While this particular hammer shows a return to more "Wild" designs, so this isnt a surprise to me in the slightest, though i MUST applaud the detail, they seem to have taken the complaints they got from World to heart.
In Rise they kinda messed up when making the feedback for Hammer, it just kinda feels like a wet towel, in World and Older games there was this really satisfying crunch and screenshake that make you feel the power of that much weight crashing into a skull at full force. Hope Wilds Hammer will be satisfying again.
Old world wepon design back to redeem Worlds sins. Love to see it.

Really gives off that overwhelming sense of weight with those swings where momentum is building up and then ending it with a satisfying, meaty, bonk.
