<div><font size="4" face="Comic Sans MS">I am closing in on 44 as a Barbarian Zerker. I have SSoY & Serrated Bone Dirk. I also have the Electified Bone Claymore. When/IF it gets fixed back to the 51.6 Damage rating, IS dual wielding Better than a Two hander and why? Am I better off just sticking with those two DWders and not bothering with the (revamped) EBBC? What was done? Why? What do you who are above me use or have used? By the way I am NOT new to the game, I have played on AB since hour one day one, I have just taken my time and enjoy the game slowly hehe. Please give me what advice you have as I love hearing it. </font></div><div><font size="4" face="Comic Sans MS"></font> </div><div><font size="4" face="Comic Sans MS">Thanks</font></div><div><font size="4" face="Comic Sans MS">Cacophonix AB server.</font></div>
<div></div>I haven't parsed it, but I went with the DW setup. The base damage is a lot higher (60+ DR vs 51.6) plus a decent proc on the SSOY. Another idea is the Archon's Great Flail, a FABLED 2H from the Runnyeye instance at the back of that dungeon. The AGF is so slow (3.8 seconds) that your berserker AE procs are insanely common. I found the AGF was amazing for mob groups of 3 or more when in offensive stance.

<div></div><font size="4" face="Comic Sans MS">How did you arrive at that DR? Did you just take the DR of 38 and multiply and divide? Can someone show me a parse example of how DW are better than a good two hander if possible? Thanks VERY much for the reply btw...=)</font>

<div></div>Personally, I got myself a Royal Great Flail at 40, and from using that I do not use anything else, unless what im tanking is hard then i'll switch to shield and 1h.

I have this AGF, how do I get royal great flail? Is it from epic encounter? any walkthrues available how to get encounter done (minimum setup and so forth).<div></div>
<div>The easiest encounter that can drop the RGF is Rognog the Angler in Cove of Decay. He is an epicX4, but a single group of 60s has been known to defeat him. If you want a walkthrough, go to eq2.ogaming.com.</div><div> </div><div>The AGF comes from the evil eye boss instance in Runnyeye.</div>
