| Post subject: | 1handers v. 2handers |
Drifted away from my monk today and yesterday to alt grind. (shm and war were fun). Mainly wanted to derp around with the melee weapons I've collected but couldnt viably use. (old elite venova 2hb and the 66/68 1handers and 2handers) 2handers just destroy dual wield dps. The grandfather is doing (at worst) a little over double the dps of the best 1handed combo for me and at best closer to triple the dps. Thoughts and feels? Maybe I'm just dual wielding wrong? Maybe 1handers need a boost? (im sure rog's would agree) I mean there are certain benefits of dual wielding. Over a small amount of time dual wield provides a more regular damage output compared with a highly fluctuating 2hander. Mixing stats of 2 weapons gives you more control over what you want, plus there are more 1handed options to choose from since there are no 2handed piercers. But as much as I want to dual wield (idk why, whatever) its just not a good idea if youre class is able to use a 2hander. |

Ranger does well with Dual Wielding, especially with the 20-point Snare that converts auto attacks into multiple attacks. That plus weapons that have Procs more than even out the damage. Then if you play hardcore every extra life leech you can get is a blessing. I've always used 2-handers to start with but then switch to dual wield or sword and board. However, at the end of the day, you need to kill Monsters and you should use the best weapon currently available. |

Procs are pretty great. Flamebelcher was fun to play with for sure. Ranger is on my to-do list but remember reading that 2handers way outperform there as well. Im guessing snare is about like intrepid might. Random but when you do in hardcore do your items poof? |

This will matter for some that use 1H'ers: shields are getting buffed, soon. They're going to get a block rate. |

Seems like a good area to ask, as I hate making new threads unnecessarily. Will there be more classes in the future? in particular I'm loving my shadowknight currently who I'm playing as a 2hander and got me thinking that I'd like a class that's primarily focused on 2handers(as currently warrior and paladin from what I can tell are sword and board primary, shadowknight either or). In relation I suppose, will there ever be a design a class/race contest? Curiosity alone asks that haha. |

Races are easy to add. Classes are hard (talents, skills, animations, button icons, key binding). |

Iksar probably IP or something? I suppose Lizardman would be the closest even though it makes me thinks of the Tae`Ew. |

Yeah, it's not really a general fantasy thing like dwarves. Iksar is EverQuest only. That's why I changed frogloks, too. Lol, why does this website exist: Furry Wiki - Iksar |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_r ... _humanoids The name Iksar specifically is EQ based but they are basically a direct knock-off of Lizardfolk from AD&D. Also, in AD&D Kobolds are generally considered to be reptilian. |

It depends on the stats and the circumstances, but generally 2h is stronger. As it should be. I doubt I'll go back to 1h weapons on my SK unless I find a really uber legendary that craps all over the 2h I'm using. |
