When you have a bunny thumping build why does everyone use a hammer?

Snograt · May 20, 2008, 08:07 PM // 20:07

For the same reason people use a sword when running D-Slash?

think about that one...

For the same reason Tom Swayer uses a Scythe.

because thumpers are hammer wielders, and rangers have a walk around with a bunny hop when wielding hammers, hence the name Bunny Thumpers.

and if they didn't have hammers they'd be known as either beastmasters, or shit. (prob a little of both either way)

Umm, mainly because it contains hammer skills *roll eyes*

You see, it's hard to use hammer skills with for example a sword

Edit: I always seem to post the exact same minute as someone else posts the same thing -_-

Ok, I realize its called bunny thumping so you use a hammer. That doesnt help me at all...
My question is actually when youre using a pet and a weapon, why choose a hammer?

Because everything else is done better by a warrior/sin/derv

Hammer = Good DPS

KoleAurow 23 · May 20, 2008, 08:17 PM // 20:17

Im also not saying what skills you use...im saying why use a hammer and why use hammer skills...I never see a "bunny (thumper or anything) using a sword or a scythe

scythe = good DPS

This sounds like a dumb question I know that! lol But arent there better skills or weapons then a hammer?

hammer is better damage on a warrior, but it's the preasure us rangers are after. Nothing beats [rampage as one]+[hammer bash]+[bestial mauling]+[crushing blow] in terms of sustainable caster preasure.

read the dozen posts above you, No, there is not a better weapon for anyone running a pet in PvP

Murmel · May 20, 2008, 08:22 PM // 20:22

Dear Kole. Did you read the skills at the link I posted?

Hammer gives KD. KD = I_33t 0wn4g3. And "Rampage as One" = +33% attack speed. Hammer + RaO = kewl

KoleAurow 23 · May 20, 2008, 08:22 PM // 20:22

Did I say pvp?

Murmel · May 20, 2008, 08:23 PM // 20:23

Umm, the Bunny Thumper is MADE for PvP lol

Would prolly not work nearly as good in PvE...

KoleAurow 23 · May 20, 2008, 08:24 PM // 20:24

Yes Murmel, I liked the build...but I was curently running another HAMMER build, I do like it and all. I just wanted to try something differrent.

Have you tried it in *PvE?*

No haven't... Haven't ever tried it ever. Why don't you try it in PvE

Edit: I don't have the skills to use it yet. I'm taking it slow on my ranger since I'm working on Legendary Survivor the "old school" way. And I only use my homemade builds, not pvxwiki builds.

KoleAurow 23 · May 20, 2008, 08:29 PM // 20:29

Let me rephrase my question for everyone.

I am playing as a bunny thumper in PvP AND PvE with a hammer, I enjoy it and have nothing against it. BUT I would like to try something new, has anyone else experiemented, or liked any other weapon used? The scythe seems fun, but it does not have KD. So if anyone has anything constructive on another weapon, then thank you.

lol I hope that helps...

if it's PvE, feel free to try anything you want,
and for PvP you can run packhunter (bunny thumper w/ a spear) or drop the pet if you decide to run scythe.
But please, shoot yourself if you decide to run axe/sword/daggers
