Sunset Hammer is a Weapon in Code VeinSunset Hammer is categorized as a Two-Handed Hammer weapon. Weapons can be found from Enemies and/or Bosses, acquired as a reward from completing quests, provided by NPCs, and are sold by Merchants.



A warped Sunset Hammer that has been corroded by miasma.

Even inorganic matter is not immune to the Queen's corruption, which has tarnished this weapon's black gleam and altered its properties.

However, while there are none who wield it without hesitation, its effectiveness cannot be disputed.

 

Where to find Sunset Hammer

  • Rare drops from the hammer-wielding variant of Rampaging Noblewomen Lost - such as the one upstairs from the Parking Garage mistle in Ruined City Center

 

Sunset Hammer Notes and Tips

  • The Physical Damage of the weapon is the Base Damage plus Scaling Damage. Scaling damage is based on your Character Level.
  • Has innate blood damage.
  • Similar moveset to the Queenslayer Hammer, except for the special attack (which is a jump attack instead of a swipe)
  • Compared to the Queenslayer Hammer:
    • Higher base damage: 270 vs. 238
    • Innate blood damage: 40 vs. 0
    • Lower weight: 68 vs. 74
    • Higher DEX scaling: D+ vs. D
    • Lower STR scaling: C+ vs. B+
    • Low block values on both defense and stamina reduction.
    • Overall, the Sunset Hammer is stronger against opponent with negative or low blood resistance.
  • Although a bit on the lighter side, the hammer itself is actually incredibly powerful early game due to it's high base damage, elemental damage and decent base scaling, especially early on considering how it's available just after the first boss fight.
    • This is later offset by better availability of Blood Codes, Blood Veils, Weapons, and enemies that start to gain resistances on almost every element they aren't weak to.

      Best non dlc hammer, although hammers in general underperform.
      For 1st low attack is: dmg_value (menu) x 0.9 (90%multiplier) x 1.10 ( 40-30=10 blood damage) . It has also low weight and good animations.
      Weird it has blood buff since usually sunset weapons are bottom tier on other categories either by accident or intentional.
      Argent wolf warhammer with 100% block as well is the other choice, but t does less damage than sunset.

        How is this lighter than Queenslayer Hammer despite being shrouded by miasma with huge spikes of miasma reaching out of it???

          Ruined city, parking garage mistle. Go up the ramp and there's a fatty by herself that can drop this. Got it after 4 kills using the passive item drop increase skill.
