Equipping dual weapons

[RalphWB]

How do I Equip and use dual weapons and what wepons can I equip to use?2 daggers? 2 swords? a sword and a dagger? 2 axes? :confused:

for dagger and dagger, its as simple as putting one dagger in each weapon slot. (You have a weapon slot on your inventory doll for right hand, left hand) left hand is also used for shield.

dagger and sword is- sword right hand slot dagger left hand slot.

to go dual sword/axe/mace, you have to have dual wield mastery. which is filling up your dual wield skills, and has a dex requirement, I do believe.

 

swords can be substituted with any one handed weapon. such as a 1h mace, or 1h axe.

in the vanilla game, you cant use a 2h weapon with a dagger, or shield, or other 2h weapon. however, using THIS mod- http://www.dragonagenexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=11 it converts the 2h weapons to 1h weaps, so that they can be used in combination, or going sword and shield. The disadvantage to that mod tho is that it totally diables any 2h skills, since there are no longer any 2h weapons in the game, lol.

Thank You,I think I understand. I'll give it a try.

No prob, glad to help out :)

Now, even with the 2hand mod, I still have some issues equipping what would normally be two 1handed swords. 1handed axes and maces dont affect me, but sometimes the swords can be really stubborn about which one will go in which hand. :confused:

 

have fun!

Also, I will recommend the skill Momentum, Which is one of the last Dual Wield skills. It drastically increases your swing speed, and in this game....speed can definitely kill :D

 

Oh, and as I mentioned before, some of these skills DO have a dexterity requirement. However, a high dex is a good thing. It helps with your combat speed, and assists in your dodge/block percentages. Which is a big plus, since you dont have a shield to help improve your defense.
