evaluating 1h vs 2h

[Roth]

So let's say in a vacuum I'm a noob and I want to determine what is better here on a rough basis. Let's say you have a 1h with 10/20 ratio and a 2h with 20/20 ratio. If you dual wielded two 1h with 10/20 would your damage equal the 20/20 2h typically? Or is it not that simple?

factoring in if you're tanking or not will change the dps abit, but imo the 2h with that ratio would out dps the dw 1h by far.

we did a parse on a bunch of 1h once then 2h, you get a more steady dps on 1h than the high delay 2h's out there which were very spikey, you miss a round or so due to mob pinging etc and it really kills the dps.
