This has been a favorite item of mine throughout decades of D&D play. In particular, that it seems to need all 3 attunements for a character to use leaving no variety in equipment possible beyond vanilla armor. Upon glancing at it recently I noticed it says that  "You must be wearing a belt of giant strength (any variety) and gauntlets of ogre power" (emphasis mine).Could I wear gauntlets of ogre power without attuning them in order to attune the Hammer? This would allow one other fun or useful item to be attuned at some point assuming I would probably want to use the belt if I had one. The only one of these items I have are the gauntlets but I can dream can't I?PS: yes I acknowledge this weapon is basically just a +3 vanilla weapon with a situational power but it has sentimental value to an old gamer like myself.</blockquote>
