Scrapper - Superspeed Grenadier Roamer - MetaBattle

General

While Hammer is a very strong offensive option, it can be just as defensive. The build is rather squishy so CD management is very important. Try to pressure targets mostly with 手雷包 if you want to play it safe and keep Hammer ready for situations where you'd be forced into melee or have to defend yourself.
If you want to get the most out of 手雷包 set up a keybind for About Face.
- Go to Options ⇒ Control Options ⇒ Movement, About Face should be at the bottom.
Grenades can be thrown at targets behind your character. You can kind of abuse this with About Face by quickly turning around to move away from your target while targeting them with grenade attacks:
- Keep moving forward then hold left click briefly while pressing about face - you should now be moving in the opposite direction as long as you're holding down the movement key.
- Hold the same movement key (W for most players) and right click once to turn back to where you were originally facing once you've built enough distance.
- Repeat these steps to stay at the edge of 900 range while throwing grenades.
功能机型 (F5) has massive utility value as a skill that can stomp enemies and revive allies from range.
- This toolbelt Gyro grants 奔驰疾速 like any other Gyro while also cleansing 1 condition. In desperate sitations you could use this for personal survival instead of as a group utility tool.
- You can stealth the Function Gyro with 潜行机械.

Damage

Most of the damage comes from 手雷包 and its toolbelt skill 手雷弹幕, the latter being the best burst skill in the build.
- 破片手雷 and 冰冻手雷 do the most damage, followed by the autoattack 普通手雷 which is a solid filler skill.
- 's is ideal for snaring enemies while pressuring them from range.
- doesn't hit very hard but the 's good for pressuring bunkers and delaying rez attempts as it reduces healing received by enemies.
- is something of a defensive skill, low damage but the could enable you to keep throwing grenades at your target without getting counterpressured.
Using Leap, Whirl and Blast finisher in combo fields is important for stacking via . Always try to use inside a combo field as you can't afford to let a double Leap finisher go to waste.
- is a quick and effective way of obtaining both and as it's both a combo field and finisher.
You maintain by landing CC skills. Aim for 100% uptime.
- can help you maintain this boon against high sustain specs that often heal back to full.
Try to make sure that your burst lands by using CC and beforehand:
- Sneak up on your target with .
- Stun them with or .
- Knock them down with (if taken).
takes a few seconds to charge up, use and to stay on top of your target.
and on Hammer both do great damage in melee.

Sustain

is your best friend, use your superior mobility to leave enemies behind and get away from danger. Also provides a steady stream of healing via along with .
is often a life-saver because of the AoE stealth.
The only stunbreaks in the build are found on toolbelt skills: Blast Gyro's and Slick Shoes' (not to be confused with the effect of the same name).
Both and are Water fields, use and in these to combo extra healing whenever you can.
- is both a combo field and a finisher, it has to be used after the creation of a Water field if you want extra healing. Therefore this only works with Medic Gyro as Reconstruction Field's field doesn't last long enough to fit an entire Blast Gyro cast into it. Rocket Charge works with both fields and it's a double finisher.
Condition cleansing is limited only to toolbelt skills via synergy and from . Be very careful against condition specs - try to stay in range, use CC as much as possible and avoid their attacks with Hammer. Bail out with and at the first sign of trouble.
Every Hammer skill except the autoattack could be used defensively.
does great damage in melee while reflecting projectiles, has a lengthy evade frame on top of being a double combo finisher and having high damage, stuns enemies while leaving behind a pulsing damage field.
is the most defensive thing on Hammer, being a block skill with barrier. While the damage is mediocre it's still worth using it in melee as you gain barrier whenever the skill strikes an enemy, but even if you don't do that the block is still very useful.
If taken is great at turning things around. The instant unblockable AoE CC could stop most burst attempts made by enemies without while also creating the perfect opening for counterpressuring targets. Really good at immediately punishing teleport skills like or too.
When it comes to this build the best defense is a good offense. Your survivability isn't great but your damage is, so try to keep enemies on the backfoot with constant pressure.
