Bracer of Hammerfal? Good option, pretty dang heavy though..

I don't mean to be a debbie downer on this one but realistically these are pure garbage. Not only do they weigh a ton but the range is only 55 on the Hammer itself. Which translates into body aggroing mobs before you're even in range to toss the hammer(most mobs and 100% all giants). The benefits of the SS/thurg/kael bracer is not only does it weigh less but the throwing item is 100 range translating into the ability to actually throw something without the risk of body aggro.

I have to agree with Bbeta 100%.
I did the Quest in the mid 50s, had to run from SS to Thurg and back a couple of times to get the right reward and i think each time you pay 50pp to one of the dwarfs?
Also the right quest mob in SS isn't always up, so you need to spawn that first, too.

Then finally i got the Bracer and realized the range is basically only body aggro distance.

My advice is, try and get Thurg or SS bracer and buy your shurikens until you get that. At least they have 60 range and it saves you the money you need to spend on the quest [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
For longer range pulls you should have some Forged Javelins handy.

truth, these are great! also great for soloing. You can use them to get magic based dots off you between fights.
