There are some encounters in the new Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim that require you to use a parry counter and shield. Those attacks can be too difficult to roll through without using a two-handed weapon. But if you can roll through these fights without using either of those weapons, you should be able to beat the boss, the Red Wolf of Radagon, without using two hands. It used to be that you had to press the Triangle button to two-hand, but in the new game you can do so without it.

STR/Int build

There are many ways to build an Elden Ring, and a STR/Int build for a two-handed weapon is among the most powerful. Investing in your INT and DEX will ensure you can deal high damage and blend into PvE and PvP playstyles. It is also possible to find weapons with broken skills that are still good to use, as you can take advantage of them to increase your damage.

There are plenty of weapons available in Elden Ring, but not all of them are built for melee playstyles. Because the world of Elden Ring is never-ending, you’ll want to maximize your stats to maximize your weapon’s potential. While Intelligence builds are better for melee playstyles, those with high INT can use spectral swords, asteroids falling from the sky, and cosmic beams.

In addition to melee damage, the Elden Ring has the ability to bleed enemies, and this makes it a useful two-handed weapon. Most players pair Rivers of Blood with an offhand Katana, though the Nagakiba is a solid choice if you want to get some long range damage. If you’re planning on using a long-range weapon, you can also try out Uchigatana. Lastly, make sure to equip Ash of War, which can maximize your Bleed damage.

While there are many ways to build your STR/Int in Elden Ring, the most common is to increase your strength. Strength is the classic souls game attribute, and it increases the power of a character’s attacks. You can also focus on using great strength weapons as a two-handed build.

Strength builds are a popular choice because they are easy to make and require very few requirements. You can use the heaviest swords and stun enemies in a single blow. Strength builds can be great for anyone in the game and are available for everyone. This is a simple and effective way to get good damage and high range. You can even get critical hits on bosses with this build.
