2H Weapons? + party suggestion(1)Category: GeneralMarch-4-2014 10:32 PM PST (9 years ago) Go to Blizzard forum post
Hello,

at first, i would like tos ay - i never used them at all - playing wizard with 1h + offhand.

BUT - 2h weapons are really weak, especially their DMG. I dropped some 2h legendaries and all of them has nice stats (for example 500-700 vit/int), but their dmg was around 1100-1300 (mostly around 1100-1200). This is not enough i think.

1h weapons can have higher dps too, but there is no so big issue.

And one suggestion: It is possible to make smart drop little bit more smart for group play? Example> My Wizard play with my brother's barbarian and friend's monk. Can be there little bit higher chance for me to drop good item and/or legendary for their class?

I just wanted to respond to this bit in particular, as this is a known issue that we are looking into:

There is a bug with 2-handed weapons rolling minimum and maximum damage like they were 1-handed weapons, and we are working to fix this in a future update. Unfortunately it was not possible to have this fix ready for patch 2.0.2 that went live today.

I take it this fix will not be applied to the 2-Handed weapons we have already found?

This fix to 2-handed weapons will likely only apply to 2-handed weapons that drop after the fix has been applied.
