MH Rise Hammer Build Guide
Some Features about the Hammer to consider is that despite its weight, it doesn't hamper mobility. It deals only blunt damage, which stuns (KO) monsters. It has a Hard hitting moveset complemented by powerful charge attacks. The Hammer is an interesting weapon that traditionally has been classified as a heavy weapon. However Rise has somewhat blurred this distinction with the introduction of a very specific Switch Skill that immensely changes the playstyle of the Hammer. This new variety in playstyle however does not really affect which skills are most effective on the Hammer, and for the most part the most useful skills are still going to be those that capitalize on its ability to dish out insane raw and Exhaust damage.

MH Rise Hammer Elemental / Status or Raw Damage?
Hammer is going to be another one of those heavy weapons that just doesn't have the attack speed to justify using an elemental/status build. Although the potential for Hammer to be used as an elemental weapon has been increased in Rise with the introduction of the Charge Switch: Courage skill, it is still nowhere near as good as a raw damage Hammer build.

MHRise Hammer Build: Damage
This built is created around the stats of the Tigrex Hammer, standing with a high attack level of 220, but also with a -20% Affinity. To balance out the reduced Affinity percentage, boosting the Critical Eye by adding Equipment with this skill will increase Affinity. At a Level 7, Affinity is affected with a 40% increase. Items with the skill Weakness Exploit can also be added to increase Affinity when hitting Enemy Weakpoints. This is especially fitted with the Hammer considering the focus of the weapon is to aim for the head, taking advantage of this skill and further increasing Affinity. Other skills will focus on increasing damage.
