Hammer Talisman | Elden Ring Wiki

Does this work with whips? They are strike damage like a mace?

Submit

Beat the invader but they never dropped this on my first play through… now they just never invaded on NG+ at all even though I went straight there…

Submit

Kinda wish this just boosted poise damage in general by 10% (or like 5% in pvp) so it could be more useful in PVE, but alas.

Submit

I'm assuming this works with Rock Blaster?

Submit

After 999:99 hours of playing, I just now found out this was in the game. By accident. (I got invaded when I got near the arena.)

Submit

40% geez lol talk about overkill. I wish they simply nerfed shield poking instead of all blocking. Guard countering with weapons is now useless in pvp. Now I just parry instead of blocking, chip damage and chance to one shot or gain initiative with no risk of guard break. Costs only 3fp with golden parry

Submit

Note that the invader that drops this won’t spawn if you’ve already completed volcano manor quests.

Submit

The helmet kinda looks like the nights cavalry helmet

Submit

Managed to get invaded in my world, only boss left for me to do in the starting area is Death Bird and the Fringefolk Hero's Grave. Already defeated both Margit and Godrick.
Very easy to kill him with storm stomp.

Submit

I think gaining access to Volcano Manor also stops this guy from invading. Godrick is still alive in my current playthrough yet I'm still not getting invaded.

Submit

Can't get him to spawn... On NG+, trying to gain all talismans. I'm really bummed, people seem to really enjoy this talisman.. guess I just have to pray he'll appear for me on NG+2..

Submit

Endure with this on a mace means no more finger print. Have a back up weapon to roll catch if they start retreating. I use miscericorde running r2s to roll catch and crit, but there are much better options for when the shield user realizes he has to roll away.

Submit

I can't even find the dude man, smh, sucks that he's part of a talisman!

Submit

Should have made you ignore a percentage of their guard boost, rather than just boosting the stamina damage afterwards

Submit

does it work against 100 guard boost? if not then, i guess preventing your weapon from bouncing is not bad

Submit

So this works with all weapons?

Submit

I wonder if this could be a secret Crucible Knight killer, shame I won't find out since the invader doesn't seem to spawn consistently anymore. I had an easier time getting the Misbetton/Crucible Knight duo to spawn in Redmane Castle than finding a way to fight this chump.

Submit

Does it work against 100% guard fingerprint shield? I'm guessing not

Submit

Good against knights I guess. Do any actual bosses even use shields?

Maybe if shields are ever meta in pvp this will see some use.

Submit

Where can you find the crusader looking armor the invader who drops this wears?

Submit

they should have taken more care to make things like this much less missable

Submit

Testing showed no effect on general stance-breaking; only works against blockers.

Submit

The Turtle Killer talisman

Submit

When the physick flask is used with a stonebarb cracked tear it is marked by a hammer talisman icon which makes me think that this talisman could secretly be adding additional posture damage to attacks, but equipping this would more than likely be a placebo. Not sure how you could reliably test it

Submit

Nifty talisman but unlike Stone Ring in DS2, it doesn't see as much application. It's effective against guards with shields but most enemies in Elden Ring are giant monsters. In PvP most players are running Magic or Faith because Melee is underpowered unless you are using Bleed and Bleed doesn't need this since no shield stops Bleed buildup. It's not entirely worthless though. You can use this in the early game for the guards with Brass Shields I suppose. That's really about it though.

Guys. Read all the comments on this one. There is zero consistency to the reports of why he does or does not show up. Some people were here early, before Margit (like me) and he doesn’t show, others after Radahn and he shows up just fine. What this IS consistent with is Henricus’ spawn trigger being bugged somehow. As the only reason a character stopped invading for me was by killing the actual character (bye Varre). Every other invasion happens right on air except this one. Look up this guy on any forum and it seems pretty clear something is wrong, as he’s the only one that does this. Compound that with all the glitches that are being found every day and I think it’s safe to say it’s nothing you guys did, From just needs to fix this, like so many other little things in this game.

Still it’s a shame it’s linked to a talisman, so maybe if you go into ng+ and get 2 of these, be generous and help some poor souls out who cannot get it right now.

Submit

Question is, does Hammer Talisman stack with Stonebarb Cracked Tear? If so my gosh will 2 handing collosal weapons be even better stagger machines.

Submit

Is it just for shields or poise damage in general (knocking oponents down and)

Started new game, the only thing I did, was purchase of all Bernahls weapon arts (located directly south of his invasion area). My guess is that because bernahl is a recusant himself later on, there is some interaction there. Maybe just exhausting Bernahls dialogue while he is in warmasters shack and then coming here is the trigger. Or buying his stuff

Submit

I think I figured it out. If you join Volcano Manor, he will not invade... That simple.

Submit

I have not defeated godrick and he didn't invade

Submit

20% boost to stamina damage

20% boost to stamina damage

Submit

This is an amazing talisman it adds a ton of poise damage and stagger to even small weapons, think stone ring in dark souls II. I consider this mandatory on anything thats not a big weapon.

Submit

He totally spawned for me after Godrick. I also had Radahn killed at that point.

Submit

I am SICK of missable ****!..... ridiculous...

Submit

You are locked out of getting this if you beat godrick I believe. I cant get invaded

Submit

*spoiler* if you gone too far and gotten an invitation, then this NPC won't invade you.

Submit

They didnt show up either after I joined Volcano Manor or after I beat the game.

Submit

This talisman is very useful for duel wielding weapons with weak poise damage, like daggers or curved swords. About 2-3 light attacks usually staggers big enemies in PvM and you can just keep swinging after a block in PvP.

Submit

The talisman icon is the seems the same as the Stonebarb Cracked Tear, which is used to break enemy stances in general (without them blocking), it might be worth looking into if this actually helps break the stances of enemies who don't have shields.

Submit

I don’t understand, this NPC is nowhere to be found.

Submit

Does this work with spells?

Submit

appears to prevent your weapons from bouncing of shields, good for power stancing

Submit

I've been using this with my Lordsworn Greatsword and it stamina breaks most normal shield-bearing enemies after 1 hit, allowing me to follow up with a second attack that generally outright kills them.

Submit

Useless Talisman from a Useless NPC. there is no way you're gonna use this since in PVP also against NPC you will never ever see someone use a shield blocking mofo. and even if they do they will mostly use it to parry or deal damage. It's also useless against Mobs too since their stamina is not their stagger bar for most mobs. and most importantly The NPC invader is inconsistent af. I have 2 account both have the same progression but only 1 has been invaded so far.

Submit

it works in such a way that your weapon, with the exceptions in the description, ignores the enemy's shield to a large extent if it is covered, your attack, despite the enemy's cover, is strong and passes.

Submit

non si genera il boss invasione

Submit

The Invader just doesn't spawn for me. Is that a bug just for me or was this just a networktest-thing and it got moved to an another place?

Submit

What does it do?

Submit

does this only work for hammers?
