The Longhammer

Rahd's light Orcish warhammer that swings 30% faster.

The Longhammer is Rahd’s Orcish warhammer – lighter than it should be, faster than it looks, and quietly one of the best two-handed weapons for enchanters.

How to get it

At the end of Liar’s Retreat, near the body of its owner, Rahd. If you don’t clear the dungeon, it can respawn – sometimes leaving you with extra copies.

Effect

“Rahd’s hammer, the reduced weight allows it to be swung more quickly.” In practice it swings about 30% faster than a regular warhammer, enough to beat a Daedric warhammer on damage per second.

Because the speed is an innate effect, not an enchantment:

  • Elemental Fury makes it faster still.
  • You can add your own enchantment – with Extra Effect, two – on top.

Stats

21 damage, 18 weight.
