Even after two years of its initial release, new players are still getting into Elden Ring. This rich action RPG provides many ways to play the game so players become the warrior they want in the Lands Between. From different builds to different ways of holding a weapon. In Elden Ring players can use two hands to hold a weapon to deal more damage and here is how to do it.
How to Two-Hand a Weapon in Elden Ring
Here is how to hold a weapon in Elden Ring with two hands:
- PC: Hold E, then press LMB or RMB with LMB making the left weapon your two-handed weapon, and RMB naturally making the right weapon your two-handed weapon.
- PlayStation: Hold down Triangle, then press either L1 or L2 to make your left weapon the two-handed weapon, or press R1 or R2 to make your right weapon the two-handed weapon.
- Xbox: Hold down Y, then press either LB or LT to make your left weapon the two-handed weapon, or press RB or RT to make your right weapon the two-handed weapon.
As an action RPG, Elden Ring provides many ways of playing and combat styles for players. One of the ways players can fight in the game is to hold a weapon with two hands. This way your weapon will deal more damage and its combo will change as well. Since the majority of weapons don’t have a great blocking ability, make sure you practice your dodging and rolling if you want to go with two-hand weapons.
A big portion of Elden Ring gameplay and building your fighter is based on trial and error. Some weapons are best used with a two-handed style while others are not. To save yourself from getting killed many times, try this technique with a few different weapons and see with which you are more comfortable.
