weapon choice depend almost on the build you take, stamina or magika focused.

2h was the first weapon skill i trained early in learning the game, on my first dk char: you can be fine with 2h, but i think a dk magicka build get the best from an inferno staff.

now all my alts are going for magika, so my weapon choice is easy: destro and resto staff, sometime double destro, sometimes even double resto.

I would love to make a 2 handed dps warrior (either DK or Templar) but as I rarely if ever see anyone using a 2 handed weapon in game (every warrior I meet seems to be using either bow or dual wield), I am thinking... is 2 handed a viable weapon choice? or should I just follow the herd and use dual wield?

As always, all advice appreciated

I run a 2hd as my secondary on my templar and he smashes face on questing mobs. I love using Expert Hunter skill morphed to Evil Hunter with my 2hd setup dealing with undead/daedra. I even run it as the main tank in dungeons on trash mobs swapping to my sword/board when we hit bosses. When not fighting undead I'll swap out Evil Hunter for my solar shield so I don't have to swap over to sword/board setup just to cast that or I may throw something else in there when the mood strikes.

I'm probably 55% health, 40% stamina, 5% magika on my points. I use a few magika skills during fight so I have just enough to deal with that but most my attacks are stamina based. Been working pretty well for me so far.

I'm xbox one though not sure how well all that translates to PC if you are a PC person.

I've been running a 2h nightblade for a long time now, it's entirely viable and a really fun weapon set.
