aka Hammersmith
 |
Description
These brutish characters may have once worked for the Iron King in the construction of the many weapons and armors that he required, but now they are as Hollowed as the Laborers who slave away in the mines. There is a difference, however: Strength. The Steelworkers have huge hammers whereas the common laborers merely flail about with their arms.1

Strategy
These are quite easy to take out as long as you don't get ambushed by a group, and even then with the speed of their attacks they shouldn't be too tough to handle.
They will sometimes poison themselves by breaking the poison vessels in the area just before Earthen Peak.
Beware of the shockwave their groundhitting attacks create. If you get a feeling for the timing, try to roll through the shockwave to attack
