Claymores?????? MORE LIKE CLAYLESS

[GunslingerMage]

Am I the only one painfully underwhelmed by the heavy weapons in this game? They feel so horrible to use that I feel like I'm forced to stick with sword and board if I want to even have a chance at having fun in melee. I really hope the Dev's do something to fix this because as it is I feel like there is an entire weapon category that is just dead in the water and useless.

I enjoy it. The weapon feels like it has weight

Original Oblivion had quick 2-handed weapons, shame they did not kept those.

OG Oblivion had this same issue too. Two handed weapons are much slower and don't do that much more damage. The extra reach they have is pretty much useless because it's not that big of a difference

Yes and no, the OG's 2hs were slower and by no means were they as good as longswords, but I feel like the changes in combat really made this issue worse. 2hs were always my favorite in the OG and in Morrowind. Also if you combine high speed and the 2hs reach than is a pretty easy and fun way to carve through the game without ever really taking damage yourself.

It's just such a shame to see archery get a rework to make it more viable meanwhile 2hs got nerfed into the ground
