Supercharged Hammer Hit
Galaxy Smasher attacking a line of Super Dummies. Note how the hammer only returns on hits, an incrementing amount of clones on hits, and the supercharged hammer.

The Galaxy Smasher is a craftable post-Moon Lord melee weapon and the direct upgrade to the Stellar Contempt. When used, it throws a fast gravity-affected hammer that passes through tiles. Upon hitting an enemy, it slows down and starts returning to the player. It pierces infinitely while doing so, but each hit reduces the damage of the next by 10%.

Up to 8 times, thrown hammer hits have increasingly higher pitched hit sounds and summon 1 additional smaller clone of themselves around the target. The clones deal 10% of the weapon's damage.

Upon the 8th hit, the hammer launches itself forwards instead of returning to the player. The hammer then supercharges, enlarging and homing onto an enemy after 0.92 seconds. The supercharged hammer deals 1000% of the weapon's damage and causes a very large explosion on hit, shaking the screen and dealing an additional 500% of the weapon's damage to all enemies within its radius.

Its best modifier is Godly. It cannot get modifiers that affect size.

History

These history sections are still a work-in-progress, and may not yet contain changes relevant to the current version of the Calamity Mod.
  • 2.0.4.001:
    • Echo hammer now homes towards the closest enemy instead of the earliest enemy in the NPC array.
    • Increased sell price from 28 Gold Coin to 40 Gold Coin.
  • 2.0.3.007: Fixed its damage falloff applying to the initial hit.
  • 2.0.3.003: Fixed it not having decreased volume on its charge sound.
  • 2.0.3.002: Echo hammers now take 0.7 seconds to begin homing instead of 0.92, and now decelerate more heavily as they are spawned. Adjusted their backup homing motion to be faster.
  • 2.0.3.001:
    • Reworked:
      • Buffed damage from 300 to 1300, knockback from 9 to 14, and shot speed from 18 to 30, but nerfed use time from 13 to 40.
      • No longer throws a hammer that functions like a boomerang and spawns nebula lasers on hits.
      • Now throws a fast hammer that spawns mini hammers and returns to the player on enemy hits. The more hits landed, the more mini hammers are spawned.
      • After landing a hit with the hammer seven times, an echo hammer is spawned which charges up before quickly homing in, dealing 10x base damage and exploding on hit, and the hit counter is reset.
