I was able to complete this quest using a Halfling Cleric on Fennin Ro server several months before Kunark dropped. At the time my cleric didn't have to do any faction work at all. I was fresh off the boat to Faydwer and leveled up to 9 in the usual Crushbone manner. The problem for me with the quest is that getting the parts to complete a box would take an hour each, sometimes a little longer, and getting the Hammer reward felt extremely rare. It took me about 14 tries, I believe. It might have been more but I'm certain it was less than 18 tries.
It was a pretty good weapon and was much better than the Shining Star of Light I was using except for a pair of things. The Shining Star of Light, which was hideously easy to get, and had its proc effect that would cleanse you of disease / poison and add like 4-5 hit points which fired off like 3-4 times per fight. It went off a LOT. It also removed Ghoul Root on one proc which I distinctly recall saving me from a bullcrap train in Unrest.
The other thing was the Shining Star was a Magic weapon. The Bull Smasher is not, and was a problem vs Mummies / Ghouls / Scarecrows.
