Two-Handed Sword Talisman | Elden Ring Wiki

Gonna try this on something stupid like staves.
Imagine if this thing works on carian slicer

Submit

Weird question, doing a shield only run. Does this work with shields? I two hand all my greatshields i use.

Submit

This *DOES* increase weapon buff damage on your two handed weapon! AAAAAA

Submit

This needs to be put in Limgrave to make 2H much better from start of the game imo. NG+ you are already op so doesn't matter

Submit

cool. now there's literally no reason to one-hand weapons anymore. Why would you when you can just put this on and get extra damage? It's not like movesets change much between 1H and 2H

gg from. wth are you doing lol

Submit

Everyone asking if this works with paired weapons or power stancing really needs to re-read the description. It tells you the answer right there: two-handing a sword, not wielding two swords in each hand, the icon is even a guy two-handing a sword...

Submit

Does this work on two handed crossbow and ballista shots ?

Submit

who thought this is balanced? it's literally 15% free damage without any downside to it. Would've made more sense to make it for one handing since it's already weaker.

Submit

so it works with normals, heavys and jump r1 and r2s also. however ripostes dont get bonus damage.

Submit

Any time I play another FromSoft game like Dark Souls, Demon's Souls or Bloodborne I'm gonna look at my rings/runes and be incredibly sad that I don't have my Two-Handed Sword Talisman

Submit

Time for Giant Dad

Submit

Makes the twinblade talisman basically redundant on colossals (trading superior reliability for a piddly 5~% damage decrease across a full light combo), which is annoying given it has a much more interesting mechanic.

Submit

Does this work with two handed jumping heavy attacks?

Submit

Does anyone know if this works with jumping attacks?

Submit

Does this work while using Rellana's light greatsword?

Submit

ONG I finished the whole DLC misreading the description, I thought it increased the damage of dual-wielding weapons the whole time lol .

Submit

Does it work with claws?

Submit

Does not seem to work on the Wave of Gold ash of War. I was doing 3122 to the albanarics by the palace approach ledge-road grace with or without it. went over to the giant at the secluded cell grace and did 2230 for both tests as well

Submit

"Does this work with [X]?"

When you two hand it, Does your character hold a single weapon in two hands? If so: Yes.

Submit

I just did some light testing. This is debuffed in PvP. It’s a 15% buff while two-handing in PVE, but a 10% buff in PvP. Also, it buffs jumping attacks (I didn’t test weapon arts). I think this is fantastic. It’s still a great talisman, but you can justify using builds other than two-handed strength builds. Thanks, From for not giving this the Alexander’s Shard treatment.

Submit

2H shamshir spammers just came thier pantsu

Submit

15% damage buff just for two handing your weapon. I don’t think an explaination of why that’s good is needed.

If you’ve been two handing a weapon until now, congrats, you just do more damage with this thing.

Submit

I just realized this would work together with charged attack stuff. Imagine the power o_o

Submit

does this work with warcry?

Submit

Sadly this thing looks to be heavily nerfed in PvP since I've noticed practically no change in damage against people with identical armor. I guess it's to be expected since every single damage talisman other than shard of Alexander is nerfed into nothingness for pvp and this is probably no exception. At least pve'ers are eating well lol

Submit

ritual swords talisman + two handed sword talisman + retaliatory Crossed Tree + spear talisman and ledas armor (chest piece) = alot of damage after dodging an attack, its best used with something that thrust obviously, but if you want to use axe talisman or alexander shard for a charged r2 or a aow, then it will do alot more damage. If you use this build with a +25 heavy greatsword and a stonebarb cracked tearyou destroy bosses, and if you cant remain at 100% hp, turn your weapon into a flame affinity (not flame art) and get the fire scorpion charm and flame tear, and your doing way too much damage to each boss

Submit

so this work with twin blades?

Submit

This was desperately needed considering powerstancing being better in every way, love this thing

Submit

Does this thing work with Savage Lions claw?

Submit

+25 Heavy great Stars. 66STR. Golden Vow, Flame Grant Me Strength, Blood Flame Blade, Raptors Black Feathers, Claw Talisman, Two handed Sword Talismen. Jumping R2. You Think you still need Scadutree branches?

Submit

Does this work with two handed wielding of twinblades like Godskin Peeler?

Submit

Can confirm this stacks with the smithscript talisman. I can now throw high velocity hammers that take out hordes of trashmobs.

Submit

It gives 13%, not 15% for everyone wanting to get it

Submit

works on moon light great sword havy beams ?

Submit

Does this work in the AoW of Greatsword Of Solitude?

Submit

does running attack count ?

Submit

Does this work with weapons like Rellana's dual sword that go into each hand when two handed?

Submit

why is this (15%) stronger than the ritual sword talisman (10%)???

Submit

"Does nothing for dual wielding a pair of weapons"

Does this include something like claws? Its technically just one weapon not a pair.

Submit

I was hoping this would work for the Backhand Blades :/

Submit

Works with guard counters when two handing. 955 > 1099 on +10 GS of solitude in underground roadside.

Submit

Anyone knows if the Dryleaf arts work with this or is part of the paired weapons?

Submit

An excellent Talisman that can either make Strength weapons hit like a truck even more alongside the two-hand bonus OR to bolster builds that don't utilize Strength (Such as Dexterity or Arcane)

Submit

If you're wondering, it also works with the dueling shields wonderfully. Took my 1800 damage up to 2100.

Submit

This is a pretty easy replacement for any of the scorpion charms. This gives 15% instead of 12%, and doesn't come with the lowered damage negation effect. This is a must-have for anyone two handing strength builds

Submit

perfect for braggart's roar guts greatsword users

Submit

This thing in combination with a Giant Crusher with Raptors of the mists aow on it = stagger machine

Submit

I really hope this is debuffed in PvP. If not, the only build variety I’m going to have is what weapon I’m two handing. This would simply be too good not to use if it’s not debuffed. I like making fun builds, pls be debuffed :(

Submit

shame it doesn't work with paired weapons

Submit

This doesn't seem to work with Dark Moon Greatsword when the buff is up. It works when the buff is down though.

Submit

The “R1 Masher” Iron cleaver just got even more braindead lmao. 10/10 talisman.

Submit

Crazy powerful with Darkmoon Greatsword. If you stay in melee with this talisman paired with Alexander Shard and Godfrey Icon, charged R2s hit like a truck. Just have to hit with the blade itself.

Submit

The dream of 66 strength users

Submit

is it buged ? because it doesn't work with AoW

Submit

Works with the new Smithscript Weapons thrown move if two handing.

Submit

Does this only work for physical damage or all damage types of the weapon?

Submit

This does not seem to apply to Ash of War attacks. At the very least, not my Wing Stance R2. 3100 damage with and without the talisman. Made sure to check that theres no counter damage on my test.

Submit

Does this apply to a paired weapon (not a pair of two weapons, but one that "splits" into two)?

Submit

Works with the new Carian Thrusting Shield when used with 2H attacks.

Submit

does not work with perfume bottles

Submit

Magic users: If you two-hand your cheating wand with this you get a 15% buff to how pathetic you are

Submit

Is it still 15% for PVP? Assuming they dropped it down to 5% like the greatshield talisman but if not I might have to make a run to the ruins early...

Submit

Haven't had a chance to test yet, but I assume the buff still works with 2 handed jump attacks?

Submit

Does it work with Rellana’s twin swords, when “two handing” the sword it dual wields

Submit

Giant Crusher/Smough’s brother’s hammer + Braggart roar + godfrick icon+ this talisman+ axe talisman + crystal tears that boost charged attacks and stamina recovery
Yep, it’s one shot city

Submit

Keenbros, I don’t feel so good…

Submit

Does it work with running/jumping/rolling/etc attacks?

Submit

Quite possibly one of the most busted talismans we've gotten. So generally applicable and powerful. I mean 15% is genuinely crazy amounts of extra damage compared to most other talismans

Submit

which weapon and ash of war would you guys recommend to go along with this for maximum bonk damage?

Submit

this and cragblade free 30% damage boost str builds are eating good with this talisman

Submit

The buff applied is about +13%

Submit

Does heavy attacks include charged attacks?

Submit

GOD tier talisman, big sword go BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Submit

90% of the time I use 2h on most of my builds, so this is basically 15% unconditional buff? Kind of crazy

Submit

90% of the time I use 2h on most of my builds, so this is basically 15% unconditional buff? Kind of crazy

Submit

S tier talisman

Submit

Seems obvious, but just tested and confirmed doesn't work with Starscourge Greatsword.

Submit

Does this work with hand to hand?

Submit

Does this stack with Claw Talisman for Jump Attacks and Axe for charged?

Submit

how do i even get down there ive been looking literal hours and i still cant get down rauh ancient ruins ive also beaten that centipede woman

Submit

Would something like Rellena's Twin Blades work with this?

Submit

15% increase for those wondering

Submit

Doesn't work on the perfume bottle

Submit

My Axe of Godrick is even more op now holy ****

Submit

Is it only physical damage or all damage?

Submit

its plus 10%

Submit

Is there a one-handed variant?

Submit

Braggart roar user here. This is the best talisman one could ask for

Submit

my beloved, only took 10+ years

Submit

My anvil is a happy dumpling.

Submit

Seemed like a long shot, but I confirmed it doesn't work for spells if you're two handing your staff.

Submit

Can also confirm 15% damage increase, had my big hammer go from 1040 with a light to 1197 on the same enemy, same conditions. Wasn't expecting to get such a nice buff to how I play anyway.

Submit

Top-tier for the non-AoW spammers out there.

Submit

AAAH, YOU WERE AT MY SIDE ALL ALONG

Submit

Good with 2h normals and heavy attacks, does nothing for ashes of war or dual wielding a pair of weapons. Not terrible but could've been best talisman in the game.

Submit

Doesn't work with paired weapons, only actual two-handing.

Submit

15% increase and doesn't buff AoWs

Submit

I tried this on moonlight greatsword to see if it was attack % or some sort of strength buff, didn't notice a difference. I think it just amps the 1.5 two handing bonus

Submit

W talisman

Submit

Seems to only buff Light/Heavy attacks by 15% when two handing a single weapon, I didn't get a bonus when "two-handing" martial arts. It did not buff Lion's Claw ash of war

Submit
