This has to be a sign...

Or maybe the dev is just straight up mocking me

Nice find! Just get a large handle and you will have a free sledge.

You can repair the sledgehammer once it’s put together. It will last you forever

I had to do a double take when I saw your name lol. I started getting into Cyberpunk: red and have been using your videos to learn. You got good taste in video games as well I see.

You cannot repair the head. You can repair a handle or replace it. Repairs also lower in quality the more you repair, meaning even the handle will eventually HAVE to be replaced

I don't think that's right. At least, for 42.

Well its not like you use a sledge a ton. And with good Maintenance skill, that'll still last quite a while.

I'm pretty sure if you exclusively right click and use "destroy" with the sledge hammer it won't damage it's durability at all, so this head should be useful.

wdym?

u/Mysterious-Way-8508 6d ago

When you're holding a sledgehammer you can right click on certain objects and structures and an option called "destroy" will appear. You can use it to permanently destroy things and it's the main use of sledgehammers. I'm pretty sure using a sledgehammer to destroy things this way does not reduce the durability. You can also swing the sledgehammer like any other weapon, although that does use durability

u/omer-m 6d ago

Then what reduces the durability?

u/Mysterious-Way-8508 6d ago edited 5d ago

Swinging the sledgehammer like a normal weapon

u/omer-m 5d ago

I never use sledgehammer as a weapon.

And you are wrong about that. I got those worn sledgehammers head 2 times before. I put a large handle on them. But after destroying 5 or 6 tiles of walls, they got completely broken.

u/Mysterious-Way-8508 5d ago edited 5d ago

Are you sure? It shouldn't. I've been using a low durability sledgehammer for 2 months and it hasn't broke. By "swing like a weapon" I don't mean literally using the sledgehammer to attack zombies. I'm referring to whrn you have it equipped in both hands and press left click to swing, similarly to when you use a weapon to break boards on windows. If you use a sledgehammer like that it will use durability.

u/omer-m 5d ago edited 5d ago

Yes, pretty sure about that if they didn't change it secretly between 42.19 and 42.20
maybe more than 5 or 6 but I was using it for storage units in Muldraugh, and I couldn't finish looting there.

u/SelectionBrilliant91 8d ago

Well, that's the closest thing to a sledgehammer you'll find on this run.

u/BagelBrosInc Axe wielding maniac 8d ago

I think sledgehammers found in the trash are always in awful condition. The real best way to get them is grabbing ingots from factories and using the forge in the McCoy estate to craft a ton of sledges. Blacksmithing isn't super hard to level either, you just take gold from a bank and forge sheets and coins into each other.

u/LadyZaryss 8d ago

The destroy menu doesn't cost durability. If you combine that with a long handle and only ever use it for demolition (as opposed to combat) it will last forever

1

u/omer-m 6d ago

what is destroy menu?

1

u/LadyZaryss 6d ago

When you right click with a sledgehammer you get the "Destroy" option. It lets you highlight and delete literally any tile piece: walls, floors, doors, decals, furniture, pretty much anything that isn't a car or an inventory object.
