Unlike how Dark Souls 2 allowed the player to switch between standard and power stance movesets when dual-wielding two of the same weapon, Elden Ring automatically switches over to a power stance
Two-handed probably should get both a poise damage buff and a stance damage buff, to make dual wielding more focused on damage while two-handed is better for stopping power and stagger. The way it is now you get it all with dual wielding, though this does vary some, depending on moveset. For example, dual hammers are definitely not like
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
10 Zweihander. As one of the most reliable and commonly used colossal swords in Elden Ring, Zweihander is a perfect weapon to use if you just want to try this fighting style out. Or even if you just end up falling in love with the weapon and use it to go through the entire game. That's what's great about Zweihander.
Two handed cause I’m slow and can’t dodge so I block instead. bringemichum • 9 min. ago. It depends on weapons. For example curved swords have the best dualwieding movement in ER. But rapier dualwielding movement is trash, better not to use. makamesque • 1 min. ago. always 2h when possible. better poise damage, faster attack speed oHYu.dual wield vs two handed elden ring
