[Embers 1.03] Ogre Grisly Constitution and "needs a ?"

[Dracos]

So, I'm currently playing an ogre adventurer with maxed gristly constitution, a two handed sword and a sawblade and... All my sawblade talents are disabled because I am not wielding a sawblade?

Not sure whether its a bug in gristly constitution or the sawblade talents, but the character is definitely holding a sawblade in their off hand. A shame, thought it'd be kind of a funny build with Sawrd and Sawblade.

Most saw talents require *two* sawblades, from what I can tell.

Ah, I guess the 'saws' bit hints at that? No that doesn't sound right.

Yeah, testing with an older sawblade, it doesn't care if you just have one sawblade equipped. It's definitely not a hard requirement on Grinding Shield, Mow Down or Overheat Saws, though it is for Tempest Of Metal it seems (weird, given its in the same tree as something that works with just one). Tempest will work with two-handed saw-blades, but that's undoubtedly intentional.

But for Ogre, if there is a non-sawblade in the primary hand, all three of those that do work cancel out.

Another 'aha': A sawblade will work for single saw-blade talents, but only in the main-hand. Not in the offhand. Noticed all my sawblade talents dropping when I unequipped a fire based main saw.
