Torag's hammer



Torag's hammers are a melee weapon that is part of Torag The Corrupted's set of barrows equipment. To wield Torag's hammers, a player must have 70 Attack and Strength.

Torag's is widely considered the worst or least useful of the six Barrows sets. Its special attack, which drains run energy, is not useful to many players killing NPCs.

Being part of Torag's barrows set, if Torag's hammers are wielded along with all of the other pieces of equipment in Torag's barrows set the player receives a special attack. Damaging melee attacks have a chance of lowering the victim's run energy by 20%. It is not used by many players as the set effect is lackluster compared to other barrows sets, and not worth sacrificing better weapons/shields. However, the hammers are still useful if the monster you plan to fight has a large weakness to crush, such as Waterfiends, and are used by some players who do not want to spend so much on a Saradomin Sword or Zamorakian Spear. Although there are 2 hammers (making the weapon 2h), this weapon or weapons is/are mainly considered to be a warhammer because of its high crush bonus.

These can be fixed at Bob's Axes in Lumbridge or Tindel Marchant in Port Khazard both can fix it at any degrade stage, the price of how much it cost to fix depends on how much it has degraded. To fully fix it costs 100,000 coins, though repairing it isn't recommended, as you could save money by simply buying a new one and then using the spell High Alchemy on the degraded Torag's hammers.

It's also not used by many players because of the accuracy of the weapon, some players argue that the hammers have very bad accuracy, like the Dragon 2H Sword, when in reality, it's not as fast as weapons such as the Abyssal Whip, or Dragon Scimitar (2 of the many alternatives), so that makes it seem like it has bad accuracy compared to the other weapons.

Trivia

 * These hammers look very similar to the hammer commonly found being wielded by several Hill giants.
 * Some newer players may think that because there are two hammers in this set, there will be two separate hits. This is not true and can lead to confusion amongst some players.
 * The worn-out version has no 's' on the end making it 'torag's hammer 0'
 * A Merch clan merched on these hammers bringing the price up to 250k but now the price has settled to around 100-120k.
 * The attack animation shows the player hitting once with each hammer per attack, even though you only actually hit once.
 * This is one of the least popular of the Barrows weapons.
