Hammer Silkbind Attacks
Here are the details for the new Silkbind Attacks of Hammer Hunters:
Silkbind Attack | Silkbind Attack Description |
---|---|
Impact Crater | Impact Crater is one of the silkbind attack that come with the hammer. The attack involves a leap that charges for a powerful blow. As the hunter lands, other enemies that will be caught also suffer damage. |
Spinning Bludgeon | Silkbind Spinning Bludgeon is another hammer silkbind attack. The hunter spins around and causes several hits. Another way to use this attack is to charge it first. Keep charging and decide when to release the attack to make the most out of it.
Unlike its predecessor, the Spinning Bludgeon no longer requires the hunter to start from a slippery slope. The action became easier to use since the hunter can start even from a flat surface. |
Dash Breaker | Can be switched out with Silkbind Spinning Bludgeon. A technique that involves the use of a wirebug to send the hunter charging into the monster. Incoming attacks won’t do any damage while the hunter is dashing. |
