Im a heavy armor nord and was wondering if I shud use one or two handed
do you want maximum DPS with no block because you're not a pussy and that's what armour is for? go duel wield like a boss.
Duel wielding looks like a little girl having a tantrum. 2 handed weapons all the way. Disarming bash - Oh you are not a duel wielder anymore, disarming bash - oh you are not even a single weilder anymore, retaliate - Oh your head seems to be detached from your body by my warhammer. Like a boss of bosses.
I don't even see the point of dual wielding. You can only hit with one sword at a time, unless you stand still. At least with 2 handed you not wasting a hand.
good luck getting in a single swing/bash before i decapitate you with a scissor swing.
The shield obviously doesn't make too much difference against physical damage. It makes a little difference as you can block more of the 20% damage that gets past max armor, but not a huge deal. To me the main point of using a shield is the elemental block perk, +50% resistance to fire/frost/shock, and the block runner that allows you to move at normal speed with the shield raised in the blocking position.Go two-handed. I have a light armor, two handed nord. He guts OG Deathlords and almost never gets a scratch so don't need shield blocking. I have some blocking perks for the sword, rarely uses them.
Casting magic - use the Thu'um. It's made for two-handers.
