Single two handed weapon & RE cap

Ragekrono

Currently, unless I'm mistaken, if you use a single two handed weapon aka not using titans grip then you're limited to 16 of 17 mystic enchant slots.

As such I think it would be great if two handers had a second RE slot that's only enabled when you have nothing in your offhand equipped.

@Ragekrono This has been requested since the current RE system was in place. Doubt they would make this change any time soon. Would be great, but doubt it was come about.

Theorically it is possible to overcome the "minus 1 RE" 2H matter... by swapping the missing RE to some talent capstone dedicated to s2H; two examples:

2% hit (For 2H parry tank, 2H dps, staff caster dps);
4 weapon expertise.

Itw, who plays 2H wouldn't spend an RE slot on "precision" or "weapon expertise".

To avoid the abusing of this system, the capstone might be added to specific build talent such as "improved mortal strike": the 2H retri would pick only its "two-weapon specialization" capstone.

I wouldn't suggest to add these capstone on general talent like "shredding blows" and "flurry": in this scenario, demolisher strike build might get two interesting capstones

Other consideration: currently, the warrior "two-handed weapon specialization" capstone is not a big deal since there are better tools to reduce the threat, whereas the paladin one seems pretty good.
For this RE reason, none caster dps goes staff and also the 2H parry tank lose 1 RE slot
tnx

I don't think that this should be a thing because you don't enchant your slots, you enchant your items, so if you want all enchantable slots, wear all items.

I'm a TWO HANDED user by the way.

@Eatmyswords Thank you for the answer, but I thought there should be more types of shields and weapons in the game, just as it was in history, such as Roman shields for the shield wall (Scutum) or a long bow that had a huge range or a dueling two-handed shield. According to your answer, I think that putting something like that into the game is a waste of time.
