General information

Large edged weapons (known in 2.0 as heavy edged weapons) include all axes and swords that are too large to fit into a lower classification, but can still be wielded in one hand. These weapons are, almost without exception, reliant on high slice and impact damage to deal fairly large amounts of damage. The storebought models tend to be fairly effective, and forged weapons are readily available in a variety of styles.

Thanks to the category's iconic image and the effectiveness of its in-game statistics, Large edged is one of the most popular weapons in the game. Favored by nearly every guild except perhaps Thieves, the one-handed nature of the weapon makes it suitable for a variety of combat styles, including dual wielding, use in conjunction with a shield too large to strap to one's arm.
