Two-Handed (Skyrim)

''The art of combat using two-handed weapons such as great swords, battle axes, and war hammers. Those trained in this skill deliever deadlier blows.''

Two-Handed is a new skill that is to be introduced in Skyrim. Two-Handed will be one of the 18 skills and will fall under The Warrior play-style. Two-handed skill is raised by the use of large weapons that the in-game character must hold with both hands. Due to the use of both hands, a spell or another weapon can not be used while a two-handed weapon is equipped.

Extra-note: In The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, staves are two-handed weapons but in the videos shown of Skyrim, staves are now only one-handed weapons. It is currently unknown if staves can be used for combat (magic or physical), like in Oblivion, or if they can only be used to shoot light onto a surface as shown in Skyrim game play.
