Weapons

Weapons play a major factor into how well a character is able to deal damage to enemies.

There are many different types of weapons, some focus more on offering good weapon damage, some focus on offering spell power and some offer a combination.

All weapons require a base amount of certain attributes as well as a class that is proficient with that weapon type. If you do not meet the requirements then a penalty is incurred reducing the benefits of the weapon.

1H vs 2H Weapons
Some weapons are used in one hand (1H) and some are used in two hands (2H).

Generally, 2-Handed weapons are more powerful than 1-Handed weapons, but they occupy both hands.

1-Handed weapons generally use the main-hand, which leaves the off-hand available for other choices. 1-Handed weapons can also be used in the off-hand, but these will not be effective unless the player is in a class proficient in dual wielding.
