{{Incomplete|The exact damage ranges of weapons are still being investigated}}
All War Hammers attack at a speed of 2.25 seconds, and as one-handed weapons can be wielded alongside a [[Shield]]. They all deal {{plink|Impact|pic=Impact damage icon|size=18px}} damage, with a chance to convert the damage to {{plink|Tempestae|pic=Tempestae damage icon|size=18px}}. The weapon strength and elemental chance of a War Hammer obey formulae with slight variation:
 
:<math>\text{Strength} = L + 15\times R + [0-2\times R6] </math>
:<math>\text{Chance} = [70-89]% </math>
 
Line 29 ⟶ 30:
*<math>R</math> is the Rarity, expressed as number of stars
 
There is random variation in the stats for a War Hammer, determined by the terms <math>[0-2\times R6]</math> for the strength and <math>[70-89]</math> for the elemental chance. Generally, a weapon with a lower roll on the chance will have a higher roll for the strength. It is believed that rarity affects the distribution of strength rolls, as {{Common}} items almost always roll 0-2, and higher values have only rarely been recorded.
 
From this formula it can be seen that each increase in Rarity of a War Hammer is equivalent to 15 additional levels. Thus a War Hammer at level 0 {{Epic}}, at level 15 {{Rare}}, at level 30 {{Uncommon}}, or at level 45 {{Common}} will all have the same minimum combat strength of '''60'''. However it can be seen that higher rarity weapons have a higher maximum damage value, the {{Common}} War Hammer has a maximum of 62 strength but the {{Epic}} War Hammer has a maximum strength of 68.
 
The strongest possible War Hammer is a level 500 {{Epic}} War Hammer with a maximum strength roll, which has the following stats:
