The Demon's Great Hammer is a great hammer in Dark Souls II.
In-Game Description
- Great hammer made of unknown materials. Perhaps it is stone, or even wood.
- The origins of its name are unclear. Its tremendous weight suggests that it was never intended for humans. Perhaps it was an offering to the demons that appear in legend.
Description[]
The Demon's Great Hammer is very large and can deal a lot of damage early on in the game. It requires a high amount of Strength to wield properly and requires Twinkling Titanite to upgrade.
Availability[]
One of the possible items received by trading with Dyna & Tillo in Things Betwixt, though using Petrified Something has the greatest chance.
Characteristics[]
The Demon's Great Hammer could arguably be considered an inferior version to the Drakekeeper's Great Hammer. While the latter starts out dealing considerably less damage, once they have been fully upgraded they deal the same amount of damage, even when infused, and they also share the same scaling in all their respective areas. It's also heavier and less durable, although it must be noted that it has longer reach.
However, one big advantage this weapon has over the Drakekeeper's Great Hammer is that it's possible to find it very early in the game as a random drop from Dyna and Tillo, as it has a chance to be given in trade for most kinds of stones (small, smooth and petrified), whereas the Drakekeeper's Great Hammer is only available towards the end of the game and as a very rare drop from a single great hammer-wielding Drakekeeper found in the Dragon Shrine. However, it may be somewhat challenging to upgrade the Demon's Great Hammer even if one gets it early, due to the fact that it upgrades with Twinkling Titanite.
