No, they're not two handed as I can equip them both manually. But that's a pain in the ass, I want to hotkey both of them to the same key, which should be possible.
oh yeah thats a known problem where you can't hotkey them if you have two of the same item, unless its fixed in the patch and you don't have that then you are out of luck I think.

Can you take control of a city or guild or own a castle?? Or become a "jarl" (town leader dude)
I know you can become leader of at least some of the guilds, but unfortunately it doesn't really give you any perks other than being able to use the office room.

Bah, would forging two new swords possibly fix the issue? It's not a game wide bug as I can dual wield and hotkey two daggers np.
Dude.. wtf elder dragons on Master are so freaking hard man. I'm playing an assassin type character, and the SECOND I go near the dragon it just rips my head off and I die in 1 shot. Even if I'm at full hp(300), it's ridiculous
Master difficulty for the win :D. Means you cant just go up to a dragon and batter it with a sword, it actually takes some tactics.
At the moment I'm playing an archer/mage, keep spamming my fire atronach, she will tank the dmg while i rape in the dps with enchanted bows/poison and the odd destro spell.
If i dont do it right, then i die in like a second. But tbf for me this just makes it ridiculously fun and addictive to play.

I have got the two amulet parts and the third one is located in the Saarthal. When i travel there, the only entrance i found is locked by a key that i don't have. What am i supposed to do to get inside or is there another entrance? Thanks
Didn't know it was locked, but you're taken to that place as part of the Mage Guild quests (it's fairly early in the quest line). Maybe Tolfdir (or whatever his name is) has to unlock it for you.
Thanks, i got in through doing the mage guild quest.

Real men role play, pick a nord get a 2 hander not use a ounce of magic and just wail on the dragon! Also on master without heavy armor dragons just rip your face off at high levels. Enchanting is still op, you can enchant 20% magic dmg reduction on your necklace, ring and shield then couple that with 1 in each fire shock frost which is 46? at max you get 100% magic reduction, if you have heavy armor then you're pretty much a wall.

Who's gonna tank these mean elder dragons that 2 shot me while I pelt them with arrows.
Didn't even know he could die... Lol. Guess I cam drag Lydia along in her legendary dragonplate and watch her solo them...

That's why my strat was for shadowmere to hold attention while I blasted with arrows!! Lol. Nothing else seems to hold therir attention so well. Just killed first one without him and it was hard as he'll. Just kept running and healing dodging breath and sneaking in shots where I could. Finally pulled out spectral assassin dude and he held attention while I finished him off. Fun. Died once. First time in a while.
70hrs into this game killed 30 or so dragons and while the fights are not that dynamic or interesting they are so pretty. Thats the best part about dragon encounters in this game just awesome to watch.
Ionno in the lands of skyrim you can massacre an entire city sheath your weapon and then serve jail time in a bed and everyone is fine with you again, although i wanted to kill the jral and steal his power it seems i cannot.

You should be able to enchant them and change the name when you do it, although I'm not sure this will fix it either as it might try to equip both of them in your right hand making you swap between them instead of dual wielding ^_^ I'm more of a mace and board kind of guy so...
EDIT: Yeah, I can't get it to dual wield using the number hotkeys.

You cant hotkey 2 enchanted or augmented of the same weapon to the same key, period - standard weapons work fine though
I finished my first playthrough as a 2H warrior juggernaut on adept level. It was fun alltough a bit too easy.
Now i'm looking for a real challenge in skyrim and gonna play master level.
I'm looking to build some kind of battlemag. F.E: The guy you encounter just before blackreach in the drawven mine, he is battling to death with his partner (a 1H/Shield girl-). After defeating them i knew i wanted to be him for my next playthrough.
He had fireballs and a 1H enchanted blade and a hugh armor, he really looked awesome!
If i wanna go with the same idea what should i first focus on? (knowing i will play at master level)
1H? Heavy armor? Shield or no shield? What kind of magic should i focus? I really like destruction but is summoning creatures for tanks better?
Is speechcraft useless? I'm kinda tired of the 2lines options for responses. I wanna have lots of options!

I ended up turning on god mode, turning up my player speed and just flying around and I was still extremely bored. The combat is very generic and seems skilless to the point of just mashing attacks while you run around in circles. Gets old fast. Oblivion was also extremely boring to me though. I figure most the fun in this game comes from making your own fun pretending you're in the world, but I find that hard to do when the world feels so empty. I'll stick with more action orientated RPGs though definitely :/ (i.e. Diablo and Dungeon Siege 1/2 esque).
Also, it really just feels like a re-skinned Fallout 3 (or whichever way you prefer to look at it, I forgot which came first, Oblivion or Fallout 3).
You definitely don't know how to enjoy an RPG... you said the combat was generic and boring right after you said you turned on all the cheats?? Challenge is half the game and if you play on adept and complain that the game has no challenge than you are a fool.
I didn't say it had no challenge, I just said it was very one dimensional. Run up to something, wack it till it's dead. Rinse and repeat. I turned on the cheats after playing for about 5 hours just to speed things up.
Fast travel doesn't work when you have to run halfway across the world.
She asked me to help her in Darklight Tower. After finishing the quest, she was willing to join me, but I didn't take her as I have Lydia. Now she won't talk to me, as if she was just some random irrelevant NPC. Does anyone have any idea if this can be fixed? She seemed like a pretty strong mage.
