Modifies and expands the "must be held wth both hands" annotation on two-handed weapons to include one-handed weapons, weapons like daggers that can be wielded in both mainhand or offhand, and equipment like shields worn in the offhand.

If you are wielding a two-handed weapon in mainhand and another weapon in offhand (via Ogres' Grisly Constitution talent or various addons), arranges for your melee weapon damage to be recorded as both two-handed weapon damage and dual-wielded weapon damage for purposes of satisfying prodigy requirements (notably Windblade).

"The Heart of the Gloom... such a strange place. Yet many whisper of mysterious powers, only waiting to be grabbed by adventurers.",
"You were one of the brave (or foolish) few who dared enter, only to find themselves suddenly able to speak to various plant life.",
"Taming (or even befriending) many different forms of plant life have given you various powers.",

They say that deep within the forests of The Gloom lies a mysterious hedge maze, expanding as far as the eye can see.
While most people are sane enough not to enter, those that do never come out the same, if at all.
The Hedge forever changes them... empowers them... to what end, nobody knows.
A Hedgeknight is a worthy foe, capable of laying wound upon wound on enemies, and inflicting them with the most dangerous of poisons.
