A question regarding block.

Hey I was wondering would getting any block perks affect blocking with a 2H weapon and if so which perks do what, thank you.

The perks that state Shield specifically affect shields only.

Any of the ones not specifically requiring a shield (like elemental shields or the shield charge) will work with a 2h, including power bash and deadly bash.

Look at the block texts carefully, if you notice... the right side of the tree and the time slow talents don't say need a shield. Those will work for 2h. Powerbash, increased damage, increase block %, and time slow all work for 2h. The ones that say "blocking with a shield" won't work with a 2h, but the others will.

So let's say I went with the block perk tree.
Shield wall
Quick reflexes
Power bash
Deadly bash
Disarming bash
These are the only ones that would apply to me?
