Two handed weapons benefit enormously from [[Vynora]] enchants such as [[Wind of Ages]], which vastly increases attack speed, and therefore, more damage over time. The large hits also strikes make [[Flaming Aura]] much more effective than normal, with 90+ potency enchantments adding up to 10 damage on a normal strike.
Removed comment about WoA helping, as it no longer affects swing timers.
Previously, wielding this sword was not feasible when compared to the [[longsword]] and [[large shield]] alternative which offered superior defense and similar damage. However, due to changes to both weapon damage and body control, two handed weapons are now much more viable, sporting a fairly high parry rate and absolutely colossal damage at even low skill levels. However, weapon quality is of key importance with this weapon - as the damage and accuracy fallout on huge weapons is indeed, huge at lower quality grades.
Two handed weapon skill can be raised by [[Woodcutting]] until level 20 on the classic servers. On the Epic Cluster, this is curved to approximately 11.
