🦙 Dual Wield Vs Two Handed Elden Ring

Lev22_. • 2 yr. ago. Yeah i tried using Twinblades and it's better to use two hand, the point of twinblades is consecutive combos and unfortunately dual wielding twinblades doesn't allows you to combo like using two hand. Each to their own, but i prefer two hand since the combo is really cool. Grey_Warden97. If you know you're only fighting a single target, or if your targets aren't packed around you, pick dual wield. The DPS it has is higher overall than 2H. If you have a bunch of enemies surrounding you, want to drain defence, want a single-click-switch or like Legacy pking, pick the 2H. Typically, you'll want higher DPS, which dual wield can offer. 1. Aznkyd. • 2 yr. ago. No. Fromsoft games are less about swing speed /DPs like hack and slash games, it's more about the move set. Elden ring specifically its all about the combos. Each weapon type has its own movesets and combos. Even two weapon types one may be longer and thus have larger range. 5. Hex-Boyfriend. dual wield gets more hits, so overall it attacks "faster" / does more damage. It's esp good for status effects like bleed since dual wield essentially stacks it as twice the speed than single wield / two-handing. Also two-handing only increases your strength stat, so weapons that don't scale with strength don't get much benefit from two-handing. I ran left hand Halo scythe (drop from the cleanrot knights in Caelid swamp) and right hand winged scythe. My playstyle was 2 hand halo for range, then dual wield up close, to utilize winged scythe WA. I had a blast with this playstyle and it was very effective and potent. I will say, Mimic didnt really get with the program, so I would This is a downside to dual weapons. One positive for dual weapons is you can double the effects. like have bleed and frost being procced with the L1 attacks from two different ashes of war. Which you cant do with a twin blade. Since you two hand a twin blade to do dual attacks, you can actually block with the weapon itself, which you cant do There's two main advantages to two handing (not the same as dual wielding) your effective strength goes up by 50% which means more damage and you can use weapons you don't meet the strength requirement for earlier. Eg. You have 10 strength but you can still two hand 15 strength weapon for full damage. The second advantage is you can use BiggPapi87. :restored: • 2 yr. ago. Not always about better they both have pros n cons. Dual weld more dps less protection and the other way around for using a shield. Also different play styles, do you wanna tank and guard counter w a shield or do u wanna dodge about as with dual weapons. SgtMcMuffin0 • 2 yr. ago. Why not a 2H in each hand? :cozyovercooked2: I caught this on some duel bow wielding NPCs early in the game, and thought to myself, "OMG give me an item that allows this function PLEASE!" How freaking cool would it be to have a attachment item that gives two additional arms, and you can duel wield bows, great sword, hammers just for the lols? 2handing allows you to use whichever of the 2 is better, as well as saving smithing stones. Using 2 of them allows you to have more elements build up at the same time. Pandaa2610 • 2 yr. ago. Lets think about the standard caestus without upgrades. So its more damage to equip two of the same weapon left and right instead only one caestus 2 Literally any 2 weapons that are the same archetypes can dual wield L1 like any 2 daggers or any 2 collosal swords, any 2 spears. There's at least one exception. Wakizashi is a dagger that dual weilds with any katana but not with any dagger. Literally every class of weapon can be used like this. It's called powerstancing. It is better to dual wield at high level for pretty much every weapon unless you are using a shield, 2 handing is never needed. Fusei1001. • 2 yr. ago. You can get 100% damage reduction on block with certain weapons (notably heavy weapons) and heavy armors, allowing you to block/counter while two handed. And since two handed weapons benefits Elden Ring two hand weapons explained. To change from a one-handed weapon grip to a two-handed weapon grip in Elden Ring, you need to hold Y/Triangle then press RB/R1 or LB/L1. Pressing RB/R1 will Updated: 19 Apr 2023 13:10. Curved Swords are a type of Weapon in Elden Ring. Curved Swords specialize in slashing attacks, and are capable of inflicting damage on hostile creatures without sacrificing mobility. They can also attack more quickly than many other melee weapons in Elden Ring, making them excellent against fast-moving opponents. e.g. put Carian Regal Scepter in your right hand. Put Staff of Loss in your left hand. If you cast night spells, you absolutely get the buff from the Staff of Loss but with the scaling of the Regal. •. Furthermore, dual staff of loss and the buff stacks multiplicatively on night spells. .
