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.



Alright. Thanks everyone for the patient replies!

It sounds like my Battle Mage would indeed be better off with Dual Weapons rather than a 2H, because he's already splititng points between STR and INT. Having to put them into FIN for Scoundrel Skills for 2H support would be spreading him too thin.

I really wanted a 2 hander character, but Red Prince comes with that wasted point in 1H weap, which would really frustrate the compulsive optimizer in me over the course of the game wink . I really kind of wish the NPCs came more as blank slates, but that's another thread.
