The HAM-mer was a melee weapon available in PAYDAY 2, added as part of the 10th Anniversary and unlocked via the Bang For Your Buck sidejob after the community gave 9,000,000 million piggy bucks bags to the golden piggy bank.

As of the conclusion of the 10th Anniversary Event, it is rendered unavailable to use.

Overview[]

The HAM-mer is a long wooden rod with golden caps on both ends. The head of the HAM-mer features the golden piggy bank, which runs its wiggle animation. Statistically it is almost a perfect copy of the Alpha Mauler, except the HAM-mer has a 0.1s faster attack rate.

Mechanics[]

The unique aspect of the HAM-mer was its random melee effects, which could either shock, poison, or instantly kill the target. This made it one of the most deadly melee weapons in the game, as every swing had a 15% chance to instantly kill any target regardless of health or status. If the target was not instantly killed, it would be stunned for an extended period of time.

Tips[]

  • Players deal more damage per second with this weapon by attacking as quickly as possible, rather than fully charging attacks.
  • If a player wishes for more damage, it is recommended that they get Berserker, Pumping Iron and Bloodthirst Aced from the Brawler skill tree.
  • If a player wishes for more knockdown, use Martial Arts Aced.

Trivia[]

  • The golden piggy bank on the end of the weapon is the same model as the event's golden piggy bank, including the animation of it wobbling.
  • The name HAM-mer is a play on the word "hammer" and "ham", given the pig on the end of the hammer.
