Two Handed Weapons

Also known as: two handed, two-handed weapons, two-handed, two_handed_weapons, twohanded

The two handed weapons skill is a fighting style and a combat skill that governs fighting with any weapon type in both hands, typically reserved for the largest swords, clubs, and spears. Fighting with a specific style initially makes you a more awkward fighter, penalizing your ability to hit your opponent at low levels before gradually easing off as you rise in skill.

The payoff for this is that in addition to the special weapon attacks of your weapon, fighting with a specific style opens the option for additional special attacks that grow more common as your fighting style improves. Two handed weapons specifically are large, heavy weapons with a lot of range, and the special attacks revolve around offensively fighting against multiple opponents, allowing you to arc your weapon to hit multiple foes simultaneously, and make it more difficult for your opponent to be rescued by their allies.

Two handed weapons trains similarly to base offense, whenever a weapon is swung both-handed at an opponent that has sufficient lethality to be a challenge.

Skill with the two handed weapons style is governed by strength (primary) and endurance (secondary).
