Greatswords (Skyrim)

Greatswords are large two handed swords. They deal more damage than one-handed swords but less damage than the large warhammers and battleaxes. They are first encountered in the beginning against one of the Stormcloaks while trying to escape Helgen.

Specs/Types
The types of Greatswords are the same as the other weapons (Iron, Steel, Nord, etc.) The damage, value, and weight vary on what type it is. For example the Daedric Greatsword deals a great deal more damage than the standard Iron Greatsword. * The Dragonbone Greatsword is only available in The Elder Scrolls V: Dawnguard.

Behind the Scenes

 * In previous games in the series, Greatswords are known as "Claymores" instead.
