Ok I play a Gladiator who has the skil
Sword Blunt Mastery and the txt says:
"Increases P. Atk when using a sword or blunt type of weapon"
I also have the skill Fatal Strike and the txt says:
"Gathers power to hit hard. Usable when a sword or blunt type of weapon is equipped. Over-hit possible. Power xxx"
The question is : Does these two skills apply to one handed swords or is it also applying to 2-handed swords?
Can I use the Fatal Strike with a 2-handed sword?
And how about "Sonic Blaster" and "Sonic Buster" are they also possible to use with a 2-handed sword?
Sword/Blunt mastery definitely works with two-handers of both varieties (but not duals.) I'm guessing everything else does as well. Logically, a Glad would probably be better off using a two-hand sword/blunt over a one-hand, since he doesn't get much benefit from shields.

Im not 100% sure this is the case, if it was why would Destroyers get a specific passive ability called Two-Handed Weapon Mastery which includes the same as Sword / Blunt Mastery which they also get?
It kind of defeats the purpose having 2 masterys that alternatively do the same thing, no?
The easiest way to do a test is get a freind you trust obviously who has a weapon with the same P.Atk value as you but is ethier 2 hand or 1 hand, which ever you dont have and change between the two and watch your P.Atk. Im going to do this myself just to make 100% sure.
Or am i just completely wrong in this aspect and Destroyers are more defined in the Two-Hand Weapon Masterys because of having this passive ability more so then other classes who have Sword / Blunt Masterys?
To the OP, yes Fatal Strike is useable with 2 hand swords, my Destroyer gets that skill also and i use it all the time on him.

The game considers both one handed swords or blunts the same 'class' as their two handed counterparts. Thus any skill (like the three you mention above) will work with both the one handed and two handed versions. Duals are a class all their own, thus skills must specifically state being usable (only) with Duals. Conversely any skill that says it is usable by two handed weapons, does not imply it can be used by the one handed versions. AKA Orc Destroyers Two Handed Weapon Mastery is a skill that only applys to 2H weapons by stacking over their other skills which apply to both.
(Duals are not considered two handed weapons. More like two single handed weapons.)
I know for a fact that Blaster works with Two handed Swords (IE GreatSword) and one handed blunts. Fatal strike can also be used with those types as well.
Gladiators get a seperate Dual Mastery skill, as well as the Sword/Blunt masterys on an equal level, so really, you can use Duals, Two Handed Swords or Blunts very effectivly. The problem i see with it though, is your never going to be able to get the same damage output with anything other then duals, because TSS, DSS are so powerful.

Because Destroyers are the 2-handed weapons specialists, and further reinforces that you'd be stupid to use a shield with them. :p I know Sword/Blunt increases 2-h weapon damage, my close friend that I duo with all the time has a Raider, his p.atk with his 2-h sword increases every time he gains a new rank of the skill. So Destroyers simply get two skills that boost the p.atk of the same weapon.
You'll notice that 2-h mastery is actually about 1/10 th as effective as sword blunt mastery. Thsi is because it DOES stack so even though it's weak compared to other mastery skills its net effect is quite good.
