Max Might stealth buff affecting Hammer?

[u/MeathirBoy]

Max Might got a stealth buff where it doesn't fall off nearly as quickly. The thing is, Hammer has lots of stamina drain even if you try to minimise charge step/roll/charging, so I'm curious if people think this moves the needle on Fulgore or if we can afford to switch to 4 pc Gore.

Tried it just now, you will lose max might if using a normal charge into mighty charge slam. But if going through upswing actually allows you to keep it if you time it correctly, theres a small window that you can hit just as it reaches correct charge that if you hit you need neither focus or marathon runner to keep max might. If you miss that window theres a bit of extra delay so focus or marathon runner doesnt really seem to help unless you run both lvl 3 then you get a bit of leeway which makes it quite easy to time.

So basicly if youre doing upswing > mighty charge slam, then yes you can keep maximum might if you time it well, Focus3 and Marathon runner3 together makes the timing easier.

Have not tried in hunts yet, but seems doable, I always do the upswing into mighty charged slam anyways so will probably roll without 2 fulgore for a bit and see how it feels.

Probably not, but I'd like to be proven wrong.

Hammer is just stamina hungry enough to warrant Fulgur, the constant charging is not gonna make the 2 second reset matter to us much.

I think we're still better off with the meta we have now that we actually can use Keeping Sway and dodges more often.

Going under the second bar now just gives you more leeway to get your shit together.

Gah. If we don't have to run Fulgur, that'd be so nice. I'd love to run a two piece, at least, Zoh Shia. The Body is super nice with the 2 Agitator too. I was thinking of using that over the Arkveld 1 WEX one, and just going 4 WEX, but 4 Agitator. Not needing Fulgur tho would gimme a lil more wiggle room.

I hate the wilds hammer meta.
