Thunder Hammer Mark II Crucis Build: 
(This is not a one shot demonhost build)

 This build is a general purpose damnation build for the thammer, prioritizing toughness regen in combat. The thunder hammer is an alright crowd clear weapon but one of the best boss killing weapons, it's biggest issue is the time charging heavy melees in crowds leaves you open to attack. "Enemies Within, Enemies Without" and "Blood Redemption" are taken to mitigate some of this damage taken during swings. Your best crowd clear combo is push attack into heavies, with the occasional push attack mixed in to crowd control enemies. I take Fury of the faithful over stealth as I find it is better as a toughness replenishment tool, this does however remove the one-shot boss attacks. If you prefer stealth you can easily switch over. 

Gun Choices:
- Revolver Mk IIa:
My preferred go to secondary as a specialist sniper. I don't touch boltgun because we already have good boss damage.
Preference based on if you take the quickdraw version or not.

-Bolt Pistol
Preference based over the revolver. Personally I find the revolver more consistent and better, but ultimately pick what thoust prefer.

-Las Pistol 
Not taken because it's main advantage over revolver is increased boss damage, but we already have the thunder hammer covering that.
