Hooked hammer:
Hooked hammer
Superior double melee weapon.
Cost: 15 gp
Damage: 1d8/1d4
Range: -
Weight: 7 lb.
The hooked hammer is a weapon derived from a gnomish tool with a hammer (dealing 1d8 damage) on one end and a long, curved pick (dealing 1d4 damage) on the other. Gnomes are proficient with the hooked hammer.
Properties: Small, (secondary end:) High Crit, Off-hand
Special: Optionally when scoring a critical hit with the hammer end, instead of dealing max [W] damage you may roll [W] as normal and deal 1d4 (2d4 at Epic) damage to any one enemy within the range of the melee weapon power that scored the critical hit. That enemy is knocked prone.
Group: Hammer (primary end), Pick (secondary end)
Thought of this specifically when I was thinking "how can I make the port of the gnome hooked hammer nice and flavorful?" for a campaign I'm running over Google Docs and IRC. It's supposed to be a gnome cleric's weapon; I think it's balanced when compared to other cleric weapons, but I'm not sure if it matches up to other double weapons.
