I think this page needs a table of which roles can #twoweapon, and how skilled they can be at it. I'd do it myself, but it looks like we could just use Template:Combat skill table. I have no idea how to do that, but it's probably easier. --Andronikus 02:54, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

Mjolnir and Excalibur

I tried two-weaponing Mjolnir and Excalibur and it produced the message "Your Excalibur resists being held second to another weapon!" or :Your war hammer named Mjolnir resists being held second to another weapon!" This should be included. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.219.152.255 (talkcontribs) 18 November 2008

Included. Thanks. ;) —Shijun 05:30, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

Example

So for the more dense among us, let's run through a few examples. A samurai wielding Excalibur and a silver saber with Expert long sword and Twoweapon and Basic saber will have [+Hit +Dam] of [+2 +3] or [-3 +1]? Does the saber get the bonus damage? If the samurai switches to Grayswandir with saber, will he get [+0 +0] or [-3 +1]? If the answer is [+0 +0], would this result be the same with Skilled Twoweapon skill? Basic Twoweapon? Thank you.

Since you're Expert in both longsword and twoweapon, you get [-3 +1] with your primary weapon. With a saber (Basic skill) as primary, even with Expert in twoweapon, you'd take the Basic penalty of [-7 -1]. You offhand weapon hits whenever the primary one does, and always gets +0 damage. Offhand weapon skill has no effect as far as I know. --Darth l33t 18:37, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

Two weapons w/ ranged weapon

If I throw projectiles(including Mjollnir) with two weapons wielded, which skill the to-hit bonus and the damage bonus from, one weapon or two weapons? --NDos (talk) 08:11, 4 June 2014 (UTC)
