The Warhammer is a type of slow and heavy one-handed melee weapon that employs the crush style of attack. They are a punishingly accurate crushing weapon, with no alternative attack. On the right targets, the crushing attack delivers a real punch - scorpions seem to go down quickly with a warhammer, as would anything in plate armour.
One of the drawbacks of warhammers are their low attack speed, and another is that they are not intended for joinery. Because of this, most players choose to use Battleaxes since they hit harder and have more combat choices. Statius's warhammer has a faster attack speed than regular warhammers, making it more desirable.
Warhammers (particularly rune) are sometimes used by players with high attack level on the F2P version of the Clan Wars minigame, for the fact that Crush attacks hit easily through rune armor, leading to a probable 20 hit or higher.
Warhammers are one of just two standard melee weapons to still not have a Dragon version, the other being the Shortsword. Jagex however has announced that this will change, but it has not been said when[source needed].
Players can buy a variety of warhammers from Vigr's Warhammers in Keldagrim-West.

†Notice: Torag's hammers' identity as warhammer[s] is disputed, however "warhammer" is the closest category of weapon they would currently fit within.
