actually, the DPS and aim on a mace allows you to outdamage hammers extremely easy starting around level 5 0or so. most people going HK will have a hammer at 2x-4x and switch back to mace at either 40 or 50. the damage amount on hammers is to compenste for the lousy aim they have around the same level. if you go Guardian you have become the type of cleric who will hardly ever (if at all) even use thier weapon.
in short, they aren't balancing the damgae, maces do a ****load more by the time your prestige level. I switched to mace and noticed the differance right away. this has been tested thousands of times and proven true every time: my mace a decent green, can beat the hell out of any damgage my near godly hammer can do.
and for the OP. it is to early for you to tell what you want to be. the choice will be clearer by the time you're level 60.
