The '''Sepulo'tez Workshop War Hammer''' {{Type|2|Energy Weapon/Hammer|EW/H}},{{Ref/Reuse|waypoint15}} is a [[gravity hammer]] developed by [[Sepulo'tez Workshop]].{{Ref/Reuse|enc22}} It was presumably manufactured by the [[Sacred Promissory]] on ''[[High Charity]]'' following the [[Jiralhanae]]'s absorption into the [[Covenant]].{{Ref/Site|Id=waypoint11|URL=http://halo.xbox.com/en-us/intel/related/gallery/gravity-hammer/b07cc7d2-5a48-4d74-bfca-cacc34677754|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Gravity Hammer|D=15|M=05|Y=2011|LocalArchive=Archive:Halo_Waypoint/2009 to 2014/Universe/Weapons#Gravity Hammer}} | |||
==Overview== | |||
===Design details=== | |||
{{Main|Gravity hammer (fiction)}} | |||
The Sepulo'tez Workshop War Hammer is one of the many gravity hammers variants manufactured by the Covenant; the aesthetic and operational design of the Sepulo'tez Workshop gravity hammer is tailored for eponymous clan.{{Ref/Reuse|evg}}{{Ref/Reuse|waypoint11}} As with other variants of the gravity hammer, the Sepulo'tez Workshop gravity hammer integrates the traditional Jilrahanae-bladed war hammer with repurposed Covenant gravity impellers.{{Ref/Reuse|enc22}} In addition to the tungsten-alloy blade attached to the reverse side of the hammer, the hammerhead contains a short-range gravity drive,{{Ref/Reuse|evg}} allowing the wielder displace gravity at a targeted location—though conventional manipulation of the weapon typically eliminates the need for such extraordinary use.{{Ref/Reuse|waypoint11}} | |||
===Usage=== | |||
The gravity hammer served dual purposes as a weapon as well as a defining ceremonial vestige of clan leadership, and is thus typically wielded by a chieftain or other high-ranking members.{{Ref/Reuse|waypoint11}} The Sepulo'tez Workshop variant was one of variants commonly used by the Jiralhanae within the [[Banished]].{{Ref/Reuse|enc22}} It has also been used by Spartan-IVs in War Games simulations.{{Ref/Reuse|h5}} | |||
==Variants== | |||
*'''[[Corpsemaker]]''': An improved variant with faster swing time and additional energy capacity, made from the finest materials its creator could coerce or steal from raider lairs on [[Warial]] and [[Teash]].{{Ref/Site|Id=nofake|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/canon-fodder-no-joke|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Canon Fodder - No Joke|D=13|M=11|Y=2020}} | |||
*'''[[Grinder]]''': An improved variant with uncalibrated impellors that generate an unstable gravimetric vortex EMP at the point of impact.{{Ref/Reuse|nofake}} | |||
*'''[[Tartarus' Gavel]]''': One of the many advanced variants secretly forged from the Sacred Promissory, with its creation tracing back to Tartarus, who used his relationship with the Prophets during his ascent to power within the Covenant to reward loyal lieutenants with advanced weaponry. Mythic gravity hammer that unleashes a linear series of kinetic explosions with each swing that also EMPs vehicles. Equipping Tartarus' Gavel also boosts movement speed, shield strength, and jump height.{{Ref/Reuse|nofake}} | |||

{{Main|Gravity hammer (gameplay)#Halo 5: Guardians}} | |||
The Sepulo'tez Workshop gravity hammer is featured in ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'', first-introduced in the ''[[Ghosts of Meridian]]'' update alongside its REQ variants. The gravity hammer is a powerful melee weapon that can kill multiple foes in one swing, and can even be effectively used against vehicles. They are [[power weapon]]s which appear on some multiplayer maps. As with the gravity hammer in ''[[Halo 4]]'', if the player is hit with a gravity hammer but does not die, the player will hear an ear ringing sound effect usually heard when they is hit with explosives in the campaign. | |||
==Production notes== | |||
The gravity hammer's ''Halo 5'' redesign was handled by 3D artist [[:Category:Images by Kolby Jukes|Kolby Jukes]]. Jukes handled the reconcepting process alongside the initial high-poly model, low-poly conversion and bake process - though final texturing was done by artist [[:Category:Images by Andrew Bradbury|Andrew Bradbury]]. While redesigning the weapon, Jukes rebuilt the entire model from scratch, though paid attention to the design of the [[Paegaas Workshop gravity hammer|older model]] created by [[Bungie]] for inclusion in ''[[Halo: Reach]]''.{{Ref/Site|URL=https://www.artstation.com/artwork/9Ae6L|Site=ArtStation|Page=Halo 5: Guardians - Gravity Hammer|Quote=This is the Gravity Hammer I made for Halo 5: Guardians in 2015. This weapon is a redesign of Bungie's Halo: Reach gravity hammer. Everything on the model was built from scratch, but I kept a lot of the legacy design intact. I was responsible for the revised concept, hipoly, lowpoly, UVs & bakes. Andrew Bradbury did the textures/materials.|D=29|M=01|Y=2015}} | |||
