| Question Title: | Why are there no Atlan hammers? |
| Category: | Items |
| Question: | A Hammer is one of the original weapons in the game (IE... not like swordstaff), yet there is no Atlan, Rav, Hollow hammer.... could you explain why no glyph was made for hammer? Is it by design (balance)? Or just an oversight? |

| Answer: | The skill in question is Axe, thus it gets an axe glyph. Hammers (much like swordstaffs) are secondary weapons that use the same skill. Each skill gets 1 glyph and one glyph only, so giving axe users a hammer makes very little sense. |
