    When is everyone gonna realize there is and never has been any balance about this game. You either play the way they want you to play or you find something else to play.

    So... lets just list the items that take two hands to hold, shall we?

    Bows
    Resto Staff
    Destro Staff
    2H weapon.

    You want all these to count as 2 items of a set? Somehow, it seems to be an intentional oversight by ZoS.

    Where is the end game? You just played it.
    Why don't I have 300+ skill points? Because you skipped content along the way.
    Where is new content? Sigh.

    MAYBE count as two because inventory actually specifies "main HAND" and off HAND, so both hands occupied should count as two.

    No it doesn't

    next time you ar ein game use the mouse thingy and put the cursor over the other slots...

    they say off hand and backup off hand if it is not full dw and full sns

    if you do that for dual or sword and shield the other slots identify the stuff there - those slots are taken.

    if you just put one one hand weapon in, you see again in the unused slot off hand and off hand backup.

    So, these do not "take up two slots" but the other slots are empty when they are used just like if you slotted just a 1h sword... and you get the same gains from that unused slot - nothing.

    errrrm.......wut?

    last time I checked 2H sword had 200+ more weapon damage and twice the penetration(if sharpened) then a 1h sword or did they stealth nerf 2H/buff 1H with morrowind and I didn't notice?

    Oh you are right sorry 2 hand sword was a bad example
    BUT my 2 hand staff is 1335dmg GOLD
    My 1 hand sword is 1335dmg GOLD
    and the 1 hand will get 2 enchants maybe slightly weaker but not by much

    Just looked in my bank

    that may be true (cant be bothered to check right now, and cant remember off the top of my head :wink:) but mag chars have the highest dps in the game and giving them the additional "slot" would make their dps even higher so the game would be even more unbalanced so its still a bad idea.
