Use

The Chlorophyte Jackhammer is a Hardmode hammer crafted with 18 Chlorophyte Bars at a Mythril or Orichalcum Anvil. It is the hammer with the lowest use time in the game.

Its best modifier is Godly or Demonic. Both modifiers increase the average damage output by the same amount. However, Ruthless might be preferred if the player already has very high critical strike chance. Mechanical tools can only have universal prefixes, because they cannot have their speed modified.

Notes

  • This tool functions much like drills or chainsaws, in that it mines via a "machine" with constant directed contact, rather than being swung repeatedly at targets. While there are several drills and chainsaws fulfilling pickaxe and axe duties via a machine method, the Chlorophyte Jackhammer is the only such tool fulfilling hammer duty.
