Ever since the buff to hammers last year, pretty much every high fiona ive seen is sporting a hammer. I've played with each weaon, but not at high level content.
Are hammers the weapon of choice now? Even with the prevalence of hammers, is there any situation where you would want a sword instead?
This will mainly influence whether I want to aim for a high level sword or hammer.

Swords will get buffed in the future by quite a bit. Hammer is probably the safest choice in both the long and short term, but sword may become better after the buff.

Hammer is just better right now. The only time I ever use a sword right now is either for fun or due to comfort reasons. I did level up using swords, so it's just more natural for me to use them, and my hammer's speed is a bit on the low side for a certain raid. However aside from that, there's no reason right now.
But post-ignition, they should both be usable. Hammer does retain their higher damage though, so if you're still dead set on getting more damage you'll want to go Hammer.

tyty for replies. I also did most of my leveling with sword, a little hammer on the side. Looks like I'll be going for a good hammer at some point.

Probably the best level 60 hammer to aim for is Black Hammer. Insanely high Attack and it's also "farmable", whereas the dragon hammer thing is not.

The Dragon Hammer isn't even a 60 hammer.
Really your choices are.
Black Hammer
Chiulin Long Hammer
Shining Clap
Shining Clap is the cheapest, Black Hammer is farmable BUT the drop rate is stupidly low and the number of mats you need is obscenely high so you'll end up spending more if you do go for a BH.
