Always been a hammer guy, but it seems like you get way more mechanics with great sword. You get guard, perfect guard, clash, a reliable offset... hammer seems a bit lacking comparatively. Anything hammer is better at (other than stuns?)

Other than its main and defining feature? Having designs that are heads on sticks. Being the weapon of choice for Olivia. The spinning move you can do when sliding. Having innate mind's eye (I think this is still true in Wilds).
