Talk:Paladin's Hammer

Trivia
Wild mass guess reference for trivia: This may be based on the Second Edition Advanced Dungeons and Dragons spell, Spiritual Hammer, which conjured up a hammer in mid air for the cleric to toss around at range; many games of the 80s (like Dungeon Hack and possibly the PC Baldur's Gate games) did this as a throwing weapon that returned, much like boomerang weapons in Terraria. Might just be my speculation, but I can totally see this as a possible trivia point. Anjelika Starblade-Carter (talk) 16:54, 4 October 2013 (UTC)


 * I reckon this weapon references the Paladin's Hammer from Diablo 2. Remember the completely degenerate and OP Hammerdin builds? [Anon Poser, 7:32 PM, 6 Oct 2013 (GMT+8)]


 * I just tried reforging my Paladin's Hammer, and I was able to get legendary, unlike what the wiki currently says: http://puu.sh/5niuM.png --68.4.21.78 20:03, 19 November 2013 (UTC)


 * It's also important to note that you very screenshot shows a S.D.M.G (Space Dolphin Machine Gun), something that is CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE IN THE GAME without inventory editors or hacks (http://www.terrariaonline.com/threads/about-reds-vanity-set-and-s-d-m-g.108174/#post-2296339), so that may explain how you were able to modify the Paladin's Hammer to "Legendary", despite all other boomerangs throughout the game attaining "Godly" at best. 173.228.18.139 21:16, 19 November 2013 (UTC)

Achievement issues
The Paladin’s Hammer is no regular hammer, and thus should not be able to be used for the Hammer Time achievement. Has this been tested and verified as true? 108.217.54.150 16:50, 30 January 2021 (UTC)


 * I haven't tested it, but I can confirm it per the 1.4.1.2 source code. The achievement is unlocked as soon as any item from a hard-coded list of items is picked up into the inventory – and the Paladin's Hammer is part of that list. --Rye Greenwood (talk) 22:03, 31 January 2021 (UTC)
