Damage and Power are the wiki's own {{Weapon Stats}} formula evaluated at each weapon's required level. Damage adds 10% per damage perk; bows and staves have Power instead, which ignores perks — a different number, so it gets its own bar, column and sort and is never ranked against Damage. The wiki notes these figures are not updated post Wake of Water, so treat them as estimates. Legendary = the weapon carries named perks.

Why pick two-handed hammers in Enshrouded?

Two-handed hammers in Enshrouded are the heavy-AOE Warrior pick — crushing base damage, shockwave proc on heavy attacks, and the best stagger-against-multi-target modifier in slot. They scale with STR (Strength) and pair naturally with the Berserker Barbarian preset. The hammer's wedge is the AOE shockwave: jump-attack into a clustered add wave and the heavy attack hits everyone simultaneously, which makes Hollow Halls add-clear faster than greatswords. As a slot priority 2H hammers are A-tier — strong second pick after greatswords for Warrior builds, and the canonical Barbarian weapon. Legendary 2H hammers carry perks that compound the stagger advantage. Pair with shield secondary if you want a defensive swap, or with bow secondary for ranged poke between hammer swings.
