This guy should be in Skyrim : V

There should be a bad ass guy in Skyrim who is a really powerful warrior who can dual wield Claymores. It's a two handed weapon, but that's exactly the point. I would pay to fight against somebody like that.

If you don't like that idea, look back on previous bosses. Mankar Camoran, Mannimarco and the lot. Jokes. Speaking of bosses, I hope the ones in Skyrim don't svck. I hope they get stats to back themselves up.

Some form of giant who wields 2 claymores? I'm game.

I think that's cheesy and dumb. Also, the true Mannimarco was not a joke.

It sure has to be a really buff guy to duel wield claymores :bolt:

giant duel wielding tree stomps sound much better

Real ones only weigh about four pounds. They're a bit too long though. Perhaps a claymore with a shorter sword.

William Wallace could have done it..

But yeah dual wielding claymores would be boss. like a boss.

:shocking: :toughninja:

Hopefully bosses that don't take one swing and drop like a rock.

apparently I'm the only one who knows of twinblade from the first (and only good) Fable

No, you aren't. Are you suggesting that something is alright for TES if it's alright for Fable?

Minotaurs in Oblivion wielded warhammers with one hand. I think it's a decent idea.

Is Fable like the nemesis of TES? Honestly, I've never played Fable but a lot of people seem to have a guilty concious for owning that game and knowing lots about it lol.

FABLE: The guilty pleasure that everyone plays and then reports back to TES forums and does everything they can to make sure TES is not in any way like it.

funny.

I wouldn't say a person could do that. Realistically, a person would have great difficulty wielding two regular swords. Some form of creature on the other hand, possibly.

» Tue Aug 30, 2011 7:43 pm

I wouldn't mind as long as it is some kind of large creature such as a giant. I wouldn't like to see one of the races dual wielding two-handed weapons.

» Tue Aug 30, 2011 11:45 am

Said boss couldn't be human-sized. Otherwise fine.

The problem isn't weight so much as it is leverage. To be realistic, a human dual-wielding claymores would have ridiculously slow swingtimes, you could just step out of the way.

itd be cool if you had to fight a giant that used shortswords like throwing knives :celebration:

Don't let the number fool you. Four pounds is no joke for a sword. I have a sword that weighs just under three pounds and it's a real workout just trying to swing it without dropping it. You should watch the director's commentary on Conan the Barbarian if you have it on DVD. They talk about how the sword he had weighed about four pounds and that even for Arnold it was no easy task swinging that thing around.

Fable was the game which promised a lot, people had a lot of hope that each sequel would be better, and yet they got worse.

I challenge you to a dual

EDIT: @above, Yeah that's what heard, everyone was so hyped for fable than it fell on its face. Good thing I just took their word for it considering everyone seems to agree lol

This. The idea is clownish.
I want hard bosses with good stats to make them difficult, but no gimmick crap like that.

Dremora in Oblivion wielded 2-hand swords with one hand, i could see them maybe dual wielding claymores or something
