Weapon options - (Two handed, dual, 1 hand etc) how do they work?

[DigitalCrack]

Well no matter what its cool that its an option to dual wield a pistol with a melee. It will be intersting to see how it will change and if its still effective when the beta is updated.

DAMN IT

 

 

 

The pistol + shield thing is actually a bug. All guns are supposed to be two-handed.

 

screw the BANALCE

How exactly do these different options function in PoE? It doesn't appear to me that any of the stats shown in the inventory screen change at all regardless of whether you equip a two hander, one hander, dual weild or even a ranged weapon. Are there differences in accuracy, speed, number of attacks or anything else outside of the damage stats of the weapon itself? 

one o' our most common requests has been for a more dynamic character record sheet and/or inventory screen. being able to see valuable numerical differences depending on armour and/or weapon load-outs strikes us as something that would be added to a crpg by default, but is conspicuously absent from PoE.

 

HA! Good Fun!

Well I am hoping they just have not YET provided this as they want to make sure the numbers are all nailed down into their final form before doing so.
