i played hammerzon this league, i found the single target skill extremely powerful. never once did i think it needed to be even better or that it lacked something. i killed sescheron quite easily, not sure if this would be the case if it missed 95% of the time?

If you are not perfectly positioned the hammer just miss, terrible against fast bosses, even killing goblins is a nightmare. Storm single target spell on the other hand is very precise just aim at the target and it lands.

Is that the same skill as old clod hammers? Dude, it requires precise positioning. I used to run a hammerdin and separately dragon kick assassin w max crushing blow on ubers for torches. Its a very effective skill... If you position it correctly.

mercenaries will be subject to str mitigation 25% ?

It's annoying. It could be improved by increasing the hit box of the hammer.

They probably nerf the damage then lol

i didn't have any problems, with any of the content you mentioned. it's extremely powerful, pretty sure i killed sesch with wearing a set which is kinda crazy to be honest. so if the draw back is needing to have higher awareness, i'm ok with that.

yes it does require positioning but isn't that what makes it interesting? it requires skill and positioning awareness, requires your mind to engage and execute at a higher level. it diversifies and makes builds and skills "feel" different. if you homogenized all skills, gameplay would feel stagnant and one dimensional, imo.
