Topic Title says is all really - http://media.pcgamer.com/files/2011/02/The-Elder-Scrolls-V-Skyrim-One-in-Each-Hand.jpg

EDIT: The confused turtle seems to confirm dual wielding shields :mohawk:

Haha, I'm definitely going for confused turtle!

Offensive Fire - Battle Mage...just what I had been thinking.

Well it definitely shows how they rethought the class system. Love the confused turtle :turtle:

Heh thats quite cool

I want to dabble in duel wielding swords for a bit, just for the Spartacus effect. I'll spend most of my time stitching between shield & sword and shield and magika though.

And of course confused turtle for those long treks through dangerous forests :toughninja:

I'm looking forward to being a confused turtle. Maybe it's not that much of a stretch for me anyway. :turtle:

So wait... we can dual wield two-hand polearms?

You're right, sounds as it could actually prove to be quite useful sometimes :smile:

Doesn't seem to rule it out does it ? :unsure: EDIT: Dual polearms I mean.

Was going to add a poll, but just too many options and not enough patience, you know yourself :tongue:

haha :turtle:
Im going dual daggers, dirks would be better though...

I think this is a single polearm held with both hands.

that's it, im going as a confused turtle assassin. everyone will fear my wrath.

This is not official...so i dont get the point of this. Not only dual wielding shields would be incredibly dumb (though funny to think about), there is no confirmation at all of polearms, regardless of what Todd has mentioned in podcasts. They wouldnt reveal it either before E3.

It's not comprehensive but I don't think PC Gamer would of made a "preview" of a few combinations you can wield without getting told by BGS reps or having seen these in gameplay themselves. It's not even substantial information to nitpick at releasing. And I'm sure Pete Hines was aware of the table they put together.

^ This.

I don't think you can reasonably deny polearms at this stage Helloween :facepalm:

If you could spit acid or a poisonous cloud that would be epic.

Lol at Confused Turtle :turtle:
This does sound good actually.

» Fri May 20, 2011 11:57 pm

Confused turtle + Dragon shouts = Overpowered :bowdown: :turtle: lol

» Sat May 21, 2011 6:44 am

It's about time they put that up. We knew about it a while ago but there was no link due to the magazine rule.

» Fri May 20, 2011 8:18 pm

Hate developer gag orders on magazines and websites :shakehead:

» Sat May 21, 2011 1:12 am

LOL at the confused turtle. This is awesome

» Fri May 20, 2011 9:34 pm

While dual wielding shields doesn't really sound like a very practical choice, I see absolutely no reason why we shouldn't be able to do it. I might try it at some point just for fun, but I doubt I'll do it as a regular option, shields will probably be best used in one hand while wielding a one handed weapon or spell in the other.

Gotta level up that block skill :poke: lol

They forgot bow and arrow, but i'd do confused turtle, who doesn't like bashing things? and kite shields even have a pointy end !!! (basic tactic that applies to swordsfighting, poke them with the point end)
