Lets see here... There's been a lot of good Kammris spawns lately on Intrepid. Highest bones I've seen were Wackamole's, with +230. His hammers were 5.7s / 620 max. Take 400-450, add the power of your bones, voila. Good luck.

The only way to build really high-end hammers is using acklay bones as the other posters have indicated. There are certainly more players looking for great hammers than there are bones to go around so you've got your work cut out for you.

Here's what you need to know to be able to evaluate bones you come across. First, find out what the best stats available are for standard hammers on your server. On my server it's 138-470 5.3 speed. Next, send a mail (not a tell) to one of the better WS on your server asking what the stats are on advanced reinforcement cores. On my server it's 41/41.

Knowing these two things, you are now prepared to evaluate any bones you loot or come across for purchase. Simply subtract the stats of the advanced reinforcement cores from the bones you have (because bones replace the crafted cores)or are considering buying and add the remainder to the stats of standard crafted hammers. For example, you loot some 141/241 bones. Subtract the 41/41 and add the remaining 100/200 to the standard stats of 138-470 and you get 238-670 as the stats for your acklay hammer. Speed will also be reduced by about .6 so a 5.3 speed hammer becomes 5.9 when using acklay bones.

As for the resources, you don't really need to worry about them as the smith will provide them. Just do some research to find out who the best smiths are on your server and work with one of them when you find your bones.

/nod. I'll do some prodding with the other WS's and see what a decent base is. Yaman, Ono'mas and well, myself, are reliable 12 pointers, others are not so good, as they've swapped bones and said they got a bunch of moderates in the past.

Resource wise, any good WS on your server should have 995+Sr kammris iron which would be all you need to fill the "Kammris Iron" slot and the "metal" slot. the only other resource you need, is copper. up until JTL came out, the hard cap seemed to be around 800 on copper and SR. however, the new jtl copper (conductive something that begins with a B copper) has had reports of 900's.

New bones as mentioned above hard cap at 450ish. however, anything even over 300 is not common. with that all being said, you cannot use cores and bones, hammers take one (1) reinforcement core. as for stats on the predicted outcome...

493 is what you will get using roughly 1000 sr kammris, and 800 sr copper, which should be readily available on all servers. this is using 65 max dmg acklay bones. to determine the rough damage on the hammer you get crafted, take the base of the hammer without a core (493-65) which yeilds 428 max. add the max of the bone to that, and there is your answer.
