Weapons by handedness

There are five types of weapons to be found in DDO.

Light Weapons
These weapons are considered light because of their size and weight. Light weapons can be used in the off-hand without additional penalties for two-weapon fighting purposes.

One-Handed Weapons
These weapons can be wielded in either hand, but if in the off-hand, you will suffer attack roll penalties.

Ranged Weapons
Currently, arrows and bolts only do pierce damage.
