Hammers are a recurring weapon type in the ''[[Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest]]'' series. In the early series they tended to function as early and mid-game weapons, bowing out to swords as the player approached the final few areas in the games. However, they still found a place in many a player's inventory thanks to the [[Hela hammer]], one of the most useful tools for besting [[Metal Slime]]s.

With the debut of Level-5 as the series developer in ''[[Dragon Quest VIII]]'', hammers have taken on a much more substantial role in the series, accumulating a varied and useful collection of unique skills.

Hammers are referred to as ''Clubs'' in ''DQ8'', and are one of the three weapon categories that former bandit [[Yangus]] can equip himself with. Clubs are primarily chosen for brute strength over attack options, with all available skills focusing on bludgeoning a single target for high damage or knocking them senseless for a turn. As with the other weapon families, investing skill points into hammers will improve the user's critical hit rate from 1/64 to 1/16 when equipped.

[[Gladiator]]s and [[Paladin]]s can equip hammers right out of the inn, and any character that invests 100 points into the [[List of hammer skills in Dragon Quest IX|skill line]] may use them as well.
