Hunter's Hammer
Some items can be smashed to reveal new components!
This Crafting tab option can be used to smash certain items for use in crafting other items. The in-game Hunter's Hammer Crafting page lists items that can be smashed or dismantled, along with the quantity of each item owned. It includes a search box for quickly finding an item to smash, as well as categories of smashable items. Upon selecting an item, a window pops up to show the hunter what will result from the smash, as well as a chance to select the quantity before hitting the Smash button.
If the item being smashed is currently in use as a Weapon or Base, the hunter is given an error message: "Sorry, you can not destroy your last equipped trap". To smash that item, it is necessary to first equip a different trap.
Many smashed items can be reassembled, but sometimes the reassembly requires extra ingredients (for example, Curds and Whey for SUPER|brie+). However, there are some items where smashing is a one-way conversion (for example, High Tension Spring).
Smashing a Library Assignment will allow you to select a new assignment, although you will be unable to start a new assignment for the next hour.
Items produced by smashing
The following items are known to be produced with the Hunter's Utility Hammer. Some smashed items have more than one source, in which case it is up to the hunter which source item to smash.
Additionally, in 2011 with the introduction of the Enraged RhinoBot, it was temporarily possible to obtain RhinoBot Parts and Icy RhinoBot Skin from smashing an Icy RhinoBot.
Nothing
Move along, nothing to see here!
In the special case of a Library Assignment, using the Hunter's Hammer produces Nothing. This item in the Special category is then immediately removed from the hunter's inventory. In other words, all hunters always have 0 instances of this item, and it does not show up in normal inventory listings.
