Talk:Wield

I was wielding an elven dagger, then I switched to a quarterstaff, then I picked up another elven dagger, then I went to wield the elven dagger again, and now, behold, I'm wielding 2 elven daggers. I was wondering how that works and what that means, am I doing double damage now? can I wield 10 elven daggers? etc. THX!!!

You don't do extra damage. Think of it as though you were only wielding one of them, except that if something affects them (rust, change of enchantment, etc.), it will affect them all. -- Marcmagus 19:17, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

This is in general a disadvantage, since more of your daggers can be disenchanted, burnt etc at one go. Here's how to separate one dagger (or any stackable item) from a stack:

      One dagger can be seperated from your starting stack for wielding by naming the stack, dropping the chosen dagger, 
      renaming the stack, and picking up the dagger again. #adjust the stack to a lesser inventory letter so that new 
      daggers are added to the quiver instead of the wielded dagger.
