I'm gonna have to say one handed. Only because it's much faster so you can land more hits for more damage. And it is much easier to master. Especially dual weild. Also, attacks with one handed while sneaking can be put up to x15 damage.

I agree. But my first playthrough of Skyrim I used two-handed weapons, and it was really fun because I could slaughter my foes in even more badass ways.

Two handed all the way! I look at damage, not speed.

And this should be in Elder Scrolls General Discussion.

Yeah. But I'm fine with it.

One handed and a spell in my left hand.

The classic battlemage fighting technique. I have several different spells on my favorites with war axes. Fun.

I would say that I mainly do a sword and shield typically, but I have had a lot of fun punching everything to death, though that is pretty boring until you get the right talent to have your base armor for your gloves be your damage then it is honestly hilarious.

I always liked to play one handed sword with shield, but in some cases it's much better to use your two handed weapon, especially warhammer, becouse at high level and with skullcrusher perk it has 75% armor ignoration, and with damage of warhammer and eventually elemental fury it can be quite deadly versus high armored guys such like many bosses, but i am traditionalist, and i enjoy playing with my sword and shield even on small levels.

I always go with one handed, both because of a shield use ability, and because daggers are more manuverable than anything else.

I've been going with two handed recently. Using the Bloodskal Blade on a Fierce Deity build is kinda overpowered.
