Power is the damage to the node per swing. Swings are counted from 500 condition.

What it farms

Each row is one full target, with the bonus the last hit adds. Gathering teas add to it. Hits assume you never hit the bonus marker. The Salvaged Hammer wastes part of every hit on ore nodes and trees and animals, so it gets less than the full amount there and those counts are averages. Compare every tool.

As a weapon
40 Blunt per hit. 3 hits kill a naked 100 HP player in 2.00s. See Damage

Methodology

Tested in game: we gave the Salvaged Hammer to a player on our own server and used it on every ore node, the first three trees and every animal in the table above until it was empty, three times each, and counted the hits, the wear and every item it handed out. Time is the hits times the swing time. The other trees are worked out the same way from the health and wood we read from each tree on our server. Tested on the current version of Rust.

The Salvaged Hammer wastes too much of each hit to earn the last-hit bonus on ore nodes.
