  Then give 2 handed swords a combo bonus. More hits to that weapon since it's meant to be used that way.
  
  Sigh, remember when dragon tooth and glory sword in the wiki said 4 hits? It would have been so cool....

  I really wish it would've been 4 hits. :T_T:

  Fine fine, now, let's say Devcat introduced armor types and resistances.
  
  This would give more reason to use certain types of weapons against a armor type.
  Say, a blunt would be more effective on heavy armor than a sword would be because blunt trama would pass through the armor.
  Yet, while blunts are similar in effectiveness towards light and unarmored types, swords would be capable of inflicting more damage becaue more exposure to skin and flesh.
  If you lack certain weaponry towards armor types, you can two hand it to inflict more force (swinging a sword really hard on metal plates would be more effective than slashing it).
  
  Now to get to the point. Say you're fighting a shadow commander who is wearing heavy armor and you only have a sword, whose power would get cut down by that armor. You can therefore two hand it to compensate.

  
  
  I like this

  Oh this is related to Demon Souls as well but I can throw it on mabi.
  
  In DS, you can also SINGLE WEILD (and dual weild but too much to talk about already) 2 handed weapons. This makes the weapon speed slower and slightly weaker but you can hold a shield or anything else in the free hand. What if this were to be in mabi? I know about the giants and their 2h and a shield thing but say humans would have a disadvantage like how humans and giants in g14 can use lances but humans have a handicap when using it?

  Fast weapons like Daggers?
  
  Or Normal weapons like Fluted Short Swords?

  
  
  Daggers.

  You said that the speed of a faster-swinging Gladius would cut deeper.
  
  And I'm saying that the weight of a slower-swinging Two-Handed Sword would help you cut just as deep (or even more).
  
  It's the same.

  
  
  the idea that you can lift somethings with 1 arm while other things become much easier to lift if using 2 arms(I know it's already been "answered, just adding my input)
  
  and a way to make it possible without making 2H weapons obsolete is
  using 2 hands with single weapons should increase stamina use, increase injury rate, and longer stun time, nothing else is changed (not even damage) also add a disadvantage for WM (by logic those small swords can't do well doing WM with 2 hands)
  
  
  the armor system would've been somewhat interesting (it can already be applied, if you modify damage to Heavy Armors and Light Armors, but if using logic blunts would still beat the crap out of Light Armors)
