Shatterstar is a unique war hammer in Pillars of Eternity.
Description[]
All around Eora, tales circulate about fabulous weapons fashioned from stones that fall from the heavens. Once believed to be gifts from the gods (and still often seen as such), these stones are now known to be meteorites. Even so, items crafted from them remain precious.
Shatterstar was a hammer forged from a solid block of pallasite that was discovered by one of Eothas' faithful shortly after Saint Waidwen rose to power in Readceras. It was crafted into a weapon and carried at the head of the Readceran army during Waidwen's march on the Dyrwood. As such, it was believed lost at the Godhammer Citadel.
The head of the hammer is iron and nickel laced with yellow and orange crystals. It's held in place by a bronze band joined to softly jingling rings.
Acquisition[]
- Sold by Igrun in Igrun's Arms and Armor, Copperlane, Defiance Bay.
Notes[]
- Shatterstar is one of the four unique weapons with increased interrupt rating (apart from morning stars, which receive it as their weapon bonus). This unique bonus makes Shatterstar an extremely valuable item, as the increased interrupt distorts the balance between weapon attack speed and its interrupt time, shifting it in favour of the attacker. This can potentially lead to interrupt-locking the enemy.
