2hd vs dual wield
 

Hey, I've been wandering since I hit whatever level gives you dual wield, which weapon set would put out more dmg? I have Dragon Horn Ykesha 8/23 in my primary and Ebony Bladed Sword 7/24 in my off hand as my dual wielding set. I have Silver Swiftblade 16/24 as my 2hd. The dmg and speed of the 2hd is = to that of the dual wielding so I've been using that but I know that with Dual Wielding you get an extra hit or something like that with the mechanics so I've been keeping the Dual wielding up as well.

Which is better and why?

There's lots of threads on this besides this one above^
I use a low delay in primary + high dmg weapon in secondary, but ymmv.

I read the link above already and that is what got me thinking about my post. I'm a bit slow but from what I read in the post it didn't seem to answer which would be best - the 2hd or my 2 one handers.

http://wiki.project1999.com/Game_Mec...bat_and_Damage is a good place to start.

From the damage calcs listed there, you can see that the Silver Swiftblade will be able to hit the damage cap until 20, and it swings quickly on top of that. So it's an easy choice pre-20. After 20, the silver swiftblade is no longer approaching your damage cap, so it's a good time to look for a new weapon.

What lvl are u? With those choices? I'd say the 2hander for the most part.

or the morin sword
U could pick one of these up on the cheap too. http://wiki.project1999.com/Rod_of_Lamentation

I'm lvl 26 atm. I think both the Morin Sword and the Orc Impaler are a bit out of my league at the moment as far as level is concerned. These 3 swords were given to me so I was trying to see which would be better to use.

I think the sword of Morin and orc impailer are zPERFECT quests for your lvl. I would do them now! Super classic and super fun!

U on Blue or Red server? Send me a PM with character name so we can group up and/or when I get to pop into game finally I can head over to help in some fashion.

At lower level the most important thing is to switch your setups around enough to keep all the options fully skilled up. By the time they are all skilled up you're ready to level again

So reading up on the DW and DH and using the formula given that would mean that if the rangers double attack is capped at 235 and I'm lvl 26 which means my DA is maxed at 135 then 135/(235x1.05) = .55 or 55% chance to double attack at this lvl right? And I just want to make sure I'm thinking correctly but DA only works when DW right?
