The Imcando Hammer Guide is a new weapon equipped in the latest Old School RuneScape update. Access to it requires that you finish the Below Ice Mountain quest, after which you can mine and smith in the Ruins of Camdozaal.
The suggested outfit is a full prospector with mining gloves and a dragon pickaxe.
Getting to Camdozaal
The Ruins are located around the area. A faster way to get to Camdozaal is by using the Glory to reach Edgeville or a combat bracelet to get to the monastery. However, you may also use a stamina potion to run towards the west side of the Ice Mountain.
Mining Inside the Ruins
While inside the Ruins, head straight forward and mine the Barronite you see in the walls.
Each deposit mined will give you 32 mining experience. Wait until you fill up your inventory with the deposits and shards from the veins. Unfortunately, mining these veins will not yield a significant amount of XP per hour.
If you do not have any equipped, there is a spare hammer and pickaxe around the vicinity. Although it will take some time, you can obtain a broken Incamdo Hammer from the deposits. Nonetheless, smithing the deposits will give you more shards.
It is when you smith the deposits and turn them into shards that you have a chance to receive the imcando hammer.
You can also get more Barronite items, like the Barronite Head, which can be used for other items.
The amount of time it takes to receive a hammer varies per user. Some users do not get it until a significant amount of inventory fills has been made.
Repairing the Broken Hammer
Once you get the broken hammer from smithing, it can be used with more shards to craft a functioning Incamdo Hammer. Talk to Ramarno, the dwarf next to the anvil.
You can give him the broken hammer, and in exchange for 1250 shards, you will receive a functioning Incamdo Hammer. Remember that you must possess shards in your inventory instead of giving them to Ramarno in advance.
Using the Hammer
The repaired Incamdo Hammer can be used the same way normal hammers can be used. It is useful for both smithing and construction. These functions apply both when it is equipped or unequipped. You effectively save 1 inventory slot if wielded.
During combat, it is useful during encounters with Tempoross. It is immune to flames and waves and will not be destroyed or taken away. In the Barbarian Assault, the Incamdo Hammer takes away the requirement of picking up a hammer every wave. Thus, repairing broken traps is easier. The hammer is also useful in several other tasks, such as Mahogany Homes.
If a player wields the Hammer during Mahogany Homes, it provides an inventory slot. If a player wants to store it in their costume room, it can be placed in the magic wardrobe. Players who wish to trade in the Hammer may talk to Ramarno, who will give 500 Barronite shards. A broken hammer is worth 350 shards.
The item still works in free-to-play worlds, although it is only obtainable by members.
