I'm in no hurry and can probably farm/buy most of the items needed for this with enough time. I'm by no means farming like my life depended on it to get my next hammer, it's more of light farming when i find groups already running them.

My rough estimate if i bought everything is

7.7m for black hammer
4.75m for chuilin hammer

Which one is easier to farm and has a better drop rate for the items i need.
The only 2 items making black hammer expensive is the
blade-pierced bone
and the heavy warriors hammer.

Farming black hammer hardmode for a little bit i pulled 6 blade-pierced bones out of my ass. and 0 hammers
Never farmed for any of the items needed for chuilin hammer not sure how easy or hard that is.

I have a couple options.

Hunt for the black hammer items and buy the broken hammer parts for 500k slowly after i pass the 17 pierced bones 5 of them = 1 hammer item.

Start hunting for the chuilin items now.

Keep hunting black hammer items and sell to buy chuilin hammer.

I'm not really that big into min/maxing yet so chances are my first hammer will be 6-10+ upgrade 0 enchants
Maybe if i farm a second hammer i will take a whack at enchanting it.

Isn't the hammer the break on him, or is that the belt, or something? I forget...

Hammer comes from the miniboss. we landed 6 runs in a row without him.

Farm another boss for mats, sell them, and buy the hammer fragments

Hunting black hammer itself kills 2 birds with one stone, i have a chance at BOTH the expensive items i need, i would need something pretty nice to compensate for the lack of just being handed the item free. since it is over 500k.
