General Information

Twohanded edged weapons are swords and axes that require two hands to use. Currently, they can be used with armworn shields, and the free hand is considered to be empty for purposes of spells which require an empty hand. Forged models are capable of inflicting more damage than any other melee weapon, and their relatively light weight has made them the most popular melee weapon in the game among almost every class other than Thieves

Prior to forging, most twohanded edged weapons were well over sixty stones, but models with bone-crushing slice are relatively easy to forge at as light as thirty-two stones.

  • Barbarians and Paladins can parry ranged weapons inside the range of the weapon they are holding.
