Savage strike and devastating blow stacks?

[Skualo]

In the description of these perks doesn't say that they only affect one handed or two handed exclusively

Hey. Yes they do. The former is in the 1 H skill whereas the latter is in the 2 H skill. Check out the skill when you level up or just tab to review it.

I couldn't find out if they stack, but i wouldn't worry about it. Crits in the game are very weak and even a 50% boost to their damage it next to worthless.

Crits only do half the base damage of a weapon as added damage. For example, a deadric sword has a base damage of 14, so a normal crit does 7 extra damage so if both perks are active and work a crit would do 10 or 11 extra damage.

It's not a crit. It's 25 + 25 = 50 percent extra damage bolstered specifically towards when you stand still and power attack - the vanilla one-handed and two-handed "downward swing" animations, or however that animation should look if you've modded it.

Right, I was thinking it was boosting the critical damage, my bad. Still after looking I cannot find a solid answer for this, since it doesn't specify a weapon type it should stack. The only way to do it would be to test it yourself.

If you want to do it without spending any skill points or leveling you can use the console to add the perks.

TBH i would say its pretty unlikely that nobody would have found this out already if it actually did stack. But cant say ive ever tested this out myself to be 100% sure
