Mortal Shell 2 Obsidian Hammer Guide: The Slowest (and Strangest) Weapon
🎯 TL;DR: The Obsidian Hammer has the slowest attacks in the game. High base damage + exclusive Colossus Stone, but its DPS lags behind due to slow swings. Find it in the Obsidianite Mines.
1. What It Offers
- High base damage — each hit hurts
- Only weapon that accepts the Colossus Stone — a unique niche
- 12-Tarstone pool — can be rebuilt into something interesting late
⚠️ The problem: Its overall DPS doesn't keep pace with higher-tier options because so much time passes between swings.
2. Where to Find It
- Go to the Obsidianite Mines, at the bottom of the central circular area in the Abandoned Slums (Ruins of Mammon)
- From the Outskirts of Mammon beacon, head west to the quarry with the flooded pit
- Drop in — the descent is a controlled fall through a chasm, ledge by ledge
- Defeat the Prophet of Profane Infinities to claim it
💡 Note: The map runs 1300 coins from Merrick if you don't want to explore blind.
3. Should You Use It?
Only if you enjoy a very specific, patient playstyle built around its slow timing. Landing a stagger buys a full opening, but missing is heavily punished. Most players are better served by the Great Martyr's Blade for slow-hit play.
🎯 Bottom line: The Obsidian Hammer is a novelty with a niche — its Colossus Stone + 12-slot pool make it rebuildable, but it's not a first-choice weapon.
