The Homing Weapon bonus allows you to throw the Dwarven Thrower Warhammer, and it will automatically return to you. Additionally, if you, a Dwarf character, wield this warhammer and throw it, you will inflict an extra 1d8 Bludgeoning damage with each strike. When you strike a target that is a Large, Huge, or Gargantuan creature (representing larger and tougher foes), you will deal an additional 2d8 Bludgeoning damage.

How to Get the Dwarven Thrower in BG3? Explained
In Baldur’s Gate 3, The Dwarven Thrower can be purchased from Ferg Drogher (X:45; Y:-102) in Rivington during Act 3, costing 2387 gold.
As soon as you start Act 3, you’ll find yourself in Rivington Village, and you can find Ferg Drogher on the road southeast of Arfur’s Mansion (X:45; Y:-102). He sells a few valuable items, including the Dwarven Thrower in Baldur’s Gate 3 (BG3). But first, you must convince him to sell you his stuff. He buys heirlooms from desperate refugees needing gold and trades their goods elsewhere. To persuade him, you don’t need to approve of his method but do not engage in combat with him. Ask if you can see his vares, and he will show what he has for sale.
If you have Shadowheart in your party, he will recognize Shadowheart. Depending on your decisions, you’ll engage in two different dialogues. The conversation will lead to Ferg walking away, so if you want to buy the items, do not bring Shadowheart with you. However, he is part of the Shadowheart personal quest, so if you want to learn more or get Viconia’s Walking Fortress, the Legendary Shield, you will need to bring Shaodwheart to him at some point anyway.
