It should only apply with weapons naturally 2h, so no.

What about if you use -twohand with a bastard sword/dwarven war axe? Or does that only work for the normal attacks and not special abilities?

Using -twohand doesn't actually make the engine think that you're using a two handed weapon, it just gives you bonus damage, so it shouldn't change anything that keys off of that.

I can confirm that small races using a weapon they can only use 2h, like bastard swords, grants this bonus damage!

So technically a quarterstaff would work? Or does it need natural twohand and no two weapon?

Double weapons will work.

You're right. Participating in the forums was a mistake. Won't do this again.

Seems odd that double weapons count as 2 handed for divine might but not for barb rage. I don't think it should count for either tbh.

Might be because rage has a much greater overall uptime ? Dunno
