| colspan="10" align="left" | The lance is a real oddball among two-handed weapons.  The balance of the lance is very strongly shifted back to the grip, since even as a two-handed weapon, it is meant to be used while seated, riding a mount, and in one hand.  The other hand is handling a shield and holding the reins of the mount.  The very light tip makes using the lance not only possible but extremely deadly.  When couched properly and used in a charge, a lance does double damage or more.  Compared to other two-handed weapons, the lance does not do a lot of damage, but when used in it's specialized niche, there is nothing deadlier.  The Lance belongs to the "Spears" weapon group.

| colspan="10" align="left" | The Ogre Hook was inspired by the crude stone and iron hooks of the ogre clans, but has developed into a deadly and sophisticated weapon. An Ogre Hook is hard to use properly, but is hard-hitting indeed if you have the ability to pull it off.  Note that genuine Ogre Hooks, made by Ogres, are usually fragile and always size Large.  The Ogre Hook belongs to the "Blades, Heavy" weapon group.
