'''Sledgehammers''' are the heavy hitters of melee weapons. They require high strength to use, ignore mechanical damage threshold (but not resistance) of living targets and also have a chance to [[stun]] their target. Their hits do not bypass target's energy shields.

Despite not ignoring the damage threshold of robotic targets, sledgehammers are still effective against them, since damage is done in large spikes compared to other melee weapons. Sledgehammers can also be crafted with an enhancement: either an electroshock generator, metal blades or metal spikes.

All item examples on this article are crafted from '''Quality 100''' components unless noted otherwise.

== Crafting ==
Sledgehammer can be crafted with [[Blueprint: Sledgehammer]].

== Variants ==
=== Normal ===
Quality of the metal determines damage potential and durability.

=== Shock ===
Electroshock variants deal extra {{electricity}} damage on primary target and half of that to nearby targets when powered. Damage is based on the quality of the electroshock generator.

=== Bladed ===
Bladed variants have a chance of inflicting a [[Bleeding Wound]] on every hit, the severity of which depends on the quality of the blades. The material of the blades has no effect on the damage.

'''Bladed Super Steel Sledgehammer'''

=== Spiked ===
Spiked variants deal extra {{mechanical}} damage per hit. Damage is solely based on the quality of the spikes, the type of metal doesn't matter.
