i read in the test notes 2handers are getting an upgrade, will a fabled 2hander out damage a legendary 1hander and buckler? any idea?also when you raid tank, do you use a tower shield, or buckler? <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />Thanks

The 2h upgrade is a joke, they increased dmg by something like 5%....

Yeah I tested out the changes on test with some of the best two handers in the game vs. some of the best one handers in both buckler and dual wield mode.  Buckler and dual wield were showing similar numbers with buckler just a hair ahead, but it was close enough I'm sure someone else could be showing dual wield ahead.  Two handers on the other hand are still WAY behind both buckler and dual wield.And yes, I always raid tank with a buckler.  I can't remember the last time I equipped a tower shield, and I've tanked pretty much every named in every EoF raid zone.
