PC Two handed question and weapons

RainNStorm · Mar 27, 2012

I could swear I already post this thread but I cant find it
First of all I am planning an ranger assassin build and I to ask you
Can I do cool bacstab animations with two handed like one handed and dager ones ?

and second is there a mod or something that will allow me to have more weapons on my character
I like to stand and look at his epic beauty and how cool he look

Like when I use sword in hand that I can see bow and arrows on the back and when I use bow I can see sword on me ?

Why the hell would you use to handed weapons as an assassin? You can perform the animations in sneak but two-handed weapons while an assassin is just plain stupid. Are you trying to be a hybrid type assassin or...

Yes, I believe you can. I'm not sure but check on the Steam Workshop or on the Nexus.

Using two-handed weapons is a little strange because there are no perks in the sneak tree for two-handed sneak damage. If you use one-handed weapons, you can get the backstab perk which increases sneak damage with one-hands, and assassin's blade which is crazy sneak damage with daggers. There are no perks like that for 2H weapons. But hey, I say if you want to use a weapon, do it!

As far as the sneak killing animations with 2H weapons, I'm not sure. I can say that I have never seen one, and I sneak attack with my Greatsword often.

^What he said. I'm playing a 2-handed warrior with sneaking as a secondary focus. There are actually different kill animations with 2H weapons as of patch 1.5 if you attack your foe from behind, but I don't think being in sneak mode makes any difference. There's one cool animation with the 2H axe (and probably warhammer) where you pound your weapon deep into your enemy's back and then rip it out violently, leaving his spine a few discs short of functional in the process. Still, it's not a stealth kill animation per se.

I would also recommend 1H weapons or daggers if you want to be the sneaky type so you can get the awesome sneak damage perks.

there is a minor bonus(i think2x?) for a concealed 2h strike in my vanilla xbox game but no special perk beyond that. I`ve never been able to get a kill animation while squatting though.
To have a chance at getting both , I sneak up to just the point before the pickpocket option would appear , then very quickly stand , step forward , and strike. If timed right and from behind , the target won`t be alerted and you get the bonus and a possible animation as well. Once got the bonus and a decap with my greatsword and The Longhammer`s quicker strike has delivered a couple of times.
I heartily recommend The Longhammer for this build. Put a couple of good enchants on that puppy and crush your enemies from the shadows ! You will love the decaps it delivers with the 2h perk.

RainNStorm · Mar 27, 2012

I use AKM mod which kind of finish every enemy in cinematic style and it include some finisher bethesda didnt implement its awesome mod

About two handed well only reason is holding katana in both hands and have it on back xD

Explore Liar's Retreat... you'll find it there.

If you've never been there, it's actually a pretty cool sequence of events.

First of all, there's only one Longhammer, and you can find it in Liar's Retreat. It's an Orcish warhammer with reduced weight so it swings as fast as a greatsword, making for a very powerful weapon.

Not a longhammer , it`s "The Longhammer" . Of Orchish design , it has 30% faster striking speed than a typical warhammer and can be custom enchanted according to your needs. My version is top of the line smithed and has soul trap/fire damage on it.
It really has become one of my favorites because it seems to deliver more animations than my other weapons. My best kill shot so far with it (other than a decap) was when crushing the skull of a Cave Bear with a flaming overhand strike ! That`ll teach those bastards for giving me the Bone Break Fever !

Su8tle · Mar 27, 2012

really? that sounds freaking cool. might go looking for that. and its orcish too which suits Ghazghkull.

Su8tle · Mar 27, 2012

is the long hammer leveled or set?

EDIT:
just read up on it and im bloody amazed! its notably one of the BEST weapons in the game. eclipsing even the Daedric warhammer in DPS when smithed to max. WOW! Ghazghkull wants this hammer to pulp heads.

i think id get super bored if EVERY enemy i killed got the cut scene finish. that would get old quick.

Cant wait to get home tonight and go in search for Longhammer!!!

FOR THE HORDE!!!

RainNStorm · Mar 28, 2012

For me that never ever get old

Its kind of stupid to me to just blash with axe and kill someone
If I would rather bring them on 2% hp and then finishe them of with style

Go for it , you rampaging Orc ! One thing you will notice though is that your custom enchantments will not show up on the description of the weapon (silver swords are like this as well), but they work in the same way re: extra damage and recharging with soul gems.
