Two-handed weapons are a category of weapons in Breath of the Wild. These weapons are heavier and slower than other weapons but deal more damage per hit. The standard attack sequence lands two hits. If Link performs a Perfect Dodge and enters Flurry Rush, he will execute four hits. If the attack button is held, Link will slowly start spinning with the weapon held out, using stamina and landing hits over time. Since Link requires both hands to hold the weapon, he cannot use a Shield at the same time.
