Equip 2H + an OH/Shield/1H/2H at the same time. Use it before it gets Patched!

[dank1one]

best way to explain the little trick...

you see how in your inventory each item takes up two boxes...

well you can put the 2h you want to equip on the very bottom right
have nothing above it

now take your weapon and place it over the first box and not over the whole weapon

that make sense?

took me a while.

Unequipped your main weapon as seen in the image below
Fill your bags so it looks like this - leaving ONE EMPTY spot above your Two-Handed weapon (See image)


Now drag your Off-Hand (In my case it was a shield to EMPTY SPOT. See the outline? That's what it should look like.


Now your Two-Handed weapon should be equipped - Just take your One-Handed weapon and put it in your Main Weapon Slot

Glad everyone likes it. I can post a video if need be, but I think there are a lot of good posts detailing how to do it.

lol. This is a good one...and not EVERYTHING has to be in Elite btw.

This was posted an hour ago and blizzard already said they are working to fix it very quickly. Just because you don't have access to the Elite exploits, doesn't mean it shouldn't be posted there,

Stats from 2hand weap on offhand slot does not work (at least not with bows)

[ilikecheating]

nice job move to elite plz

[Havocx]

Tried it and 2h + 2h didn't work.

[phantom325]

nice job move to elite plz

Blizz already knows about this.
And about my above post, I'm not saying Elite makes it 100% nerf-avoidable, because it doesn't, it's just a lot more safe than open, where even guests can see it.

BUG: Wear 2h weapon with a shield or offhand - Forums - Diablo III looks like you guys are not very liked on ownedcore, kinda sad this is why I wish there was a secure way to share exploits.

[kuehlschrank]

idk if its fixed, but it gives me 0 dmg when i equip it like that.

It's only a graphical glitch anyways for dw 2h weapons, the best benefit you can find from this is the armor boost from useing a 2h+shield or simply for the bonus stats. It won't last very long though as other people have posted.
