Hammer

Hammer is an exclusive melee weapon in Counter-Strike Online.

Overview
Although it is slow and inefficient as a weapon, the secondary attack from it can knock back incoming zombies far away.

The hammer can only be obtained through Merciless Destruction set which also purchases Heavy zombie. It is only usable in Zombie: The Mutation, Zombie: The Hero and Zombie: The Union.

Hammer can be used in Zombie Scenario and Human Scenario after the player purchases Melee Weapons License.

Advantages

 * High damage
 * Secondary attack has long range and does great knockback to zombies
 * Primary attack has high damage

 * Very heavy, the player can only walk when wielding it while in secondary stance
 * Move as slow as firing M134 Minigun when crouching while in secondary stance

Tactics

 * Zombies will be knocked far away with the exception of Ganymede, Deimos, Heavy zombie and Venom Guard.
 * In the cliff in Militia, you can knock zombies away with this weapon even if Regular zombie or Ganymede are using Berserk Skill.
 * After knocking away zombies, you might have time to reload your weapons.
 * Use the Sprint and Bloody Blade abilities to perform a devastating attack combo.
 * Recommended to combine with an effective automatic shotgun such as M4.

Trivia

 * There is a bug with the primary attack. When using the primary attack (A Mode), quickly switch to M79 Saw off and it will knock zombies away, which it supposed not to.
 * There is also a bug with Hammer where when the player attacks and quickly switch to another weapon, the kill icon will eventually show the weapon which the player had switched to.
 * These bugs also happen to Skull-9, Green Dragon Glaive and Wakizashi.
 * The hammer is the only melee that deals more damage with its primary attack.
 * Hammer also appeared in Zombie Shelter (original mode) as an upgraded collection melee weapon.
