Problem with the 2h Passive "Follow Up"

2H Passive "Follow Up" Rank II

"Increases the Damage of your next attack after a fully charged Heavy Attack by 10%"

This is great and all, even made me pick up a 2h my self. Only problem I realized is if you truly want to take full advantage of this passive you are very limited to the enchants you can put on your 2h.

Enchants you can use:
Glyph of Crushing
Glyph of Weakening
Glyph of Hardening

Enchants you can't use:
Glyph of Frost
Glyph of Foulness
Glyph of Poison
Glyph of Shock
Glyph of Flame
Glyph of Absorb Magicka
Glyph of Absorb Health
Glyph of Decrease Health
Glyph of Absorb Stamina

This is due to the fact that any enchant that does damage will proc the 10%, so if you have a +50 Disease damage, you will hit 55 disease damage as your 10% buff. Which isn't something I think you want to do.


I still intend on using the 2h, with a Crushing glyph of course. But I'm sure this is some sort of oversight made by Zenimax. I'm just glad the splash damage from the 2h passive doesn't proc the 10%, or else there would be some serious problems.

    Tested on the PTS today, Glyph of Crushing does not reduce your opponent's armor at all. The graphic may show on his health bar, but his armor value does not get reduced.
    Unsubbed and no longer playing, but still checking the Alliance War forum for the lulz.

    My crafted purple crushing glyph was reducing my opponents armor while my friends gold Pact/Dominion/Covenant 2H sword didn't reduce my armor, I noticed this a month ago. So ... No idea.

    nah glyph of crushing works fine, the enchant on the covenant greatsword has never worked since release though, despite about 100000 bug reports. you actually have to spam forum posts crying about something to get ZOS's attention in fixing a bug.

    The person attacking me was not using a covenant greatsword; he used a crafted glyph (not sure what quality). My armor rating was not reduced by the glyph no matter how many times he attacked me (though the effect showed up on my health bar every time).

    We were both checking damage before and after.

    Make it break something in PvE, that's the best way to get something fixed.

    Everyone is going off topic when what sypher said is a big problem. It is ridiculous to waste your 10% bonus dmg on a weapon enchant and needs to be fixed.
    You earned the 500 LOLs badge.

    Agreed. Flame and Disease damage are kind of important for killing bats and puppies.

    Thanks for this thread anyway, thanks to you I changed my old fire enchant to an crushing one, in case of this wasn't fixed.
    Saying that the 2H is a ton of fun right now in pvp thanks to the changes :smiley:
