So does the 2h skill affect damage from spells for casters? I notice the damage go up in the stats but the spell damage remains the same? Looked everywhere and didn't see a definitive answer.

Thanks!!!

Apperantly two handed skill only affects the staff of magus ability and the staffs basic attack.

I don't think so? How's that for a definitive answer? wink
From what I understand, 2H does boost staff damage.

Hehe that about all the answers I have seen too. Maybe, possibly, but doubtful.
There was a thread I seen In the beta where they were saying it did in fact boost spell damage output, but nothing since release.

I have read in many different threads on different websites that it doesn't boost spell damage but it does boost staff of magus and staff basic attacks (when you use it as a club XD)

This is correct. 2 Handed Skill increases staff melee damage and Staff of Magus (which is 80% of your staff melee damage). No other spells directly benefit from 2 Handed Skill.

As a side note: everything that buffs your melee damage (like Oath of Destruction) affects your Staff of Magus damage.
