My character has a Bastard Sword which can be used 1-Handed and 2-Handed.
I set up the Sword + Shield on my quickbar and can swap freely from empty-handed to equipped (slot 1).
I setup a custom 2-Handed Macro (-twohand) in an adjacent slot (slot 2). On use, the shield is put away and the sword is successfully put away. However slot 1 now becomes empty.
(Swapping back and forth between 1-H + Shield to 2-H and back to 1-H + Shield is not possibly using quickbar).
Questions:
- Should such weapon-swapping be feasible (with a penalty)?
- Are we missing opposite commands to (-twohand) (-1Hand & -1Hand+S ) (with a built in penalty)?
I am not suggesting weapon swapping should be done freely or without penalty or cooldown but noticed quick-bars were emptying.
Perhaps there are grounds for favourite weapon (-loadouts) which work in combat but are akin to the -loadoutfit/-saveoutfit functionality.

It happens because shield item is removed by a script. Similar thing occurs if you try to use lance on foot.Tathkar Eisgrim wrote: Sat Apr 18, 2020 8:15 am My character has a Bastard Sword which can be used 1-Handed and 2-Handed.

Realistically speaking, you'll need to use four quickbar slots for two-hand management.
Slot 1 --> sword + shield,
Slot 2 --> Sword
Slot 3 --> Shield
Slot 4 --> -twohand.
This will allow you to remove shield (SLot 3), Equip only sword (Slot 2), Equip both (Slot 1), and toggle -twohand when needed.
Another forum ban, here we go again.

I use a sword and a club TH, and a longbow.
I have never had an issue switching... and I like the penalty.

Re: One-Handed to Two-Handed Weapon Swapping
All you need to switch between 1h and 2h is your shield quicksslotted and -twohand active.
When you remove your shield you should automatically get the 2h bonus, if you equip your shield you lose your 2h bonus.
