Alright, thanks. I think I see now.

So it would be fair to say that 2H weapons underperform out of the gate, but can eventually be formidable in highly specialized builds, whereas a build that doesn't have a lot of points to support the 2h style would almost always be better going with dual weapons?


I wouldn't say always since it depends on loot found, but if a character has no weapon ability points invested or talents that worked better one way or the other....I wouldn't be surprised if they performed so similarly that it simply depended on loot drops. In that case, the extra bonuses from two weapons might be best.

And yeah, 2h specialized minmax builds get pretty crazy
