Is it really that bad, Rushin? I changed from 2h sword to 1h mace a while ago, still about 20 levels until I reach the same level. I think it measures up pretty good though, fights take longer time. Too bad I can't see whether if my blunt "Slow"-hit is successful or not.
Two kipees, bacuus...hmm... learn how gingos fight! I should show you my scars some day. There's at least a dozen Gingo bites to every Kipee bruise.
And welcome!

I originally thought to do 2h (actually bought one), but I thought about it and I want to be more defensive, aka live longer, but I guess there is a trade-off in def vs. killing it faster. I guess I just need more experience to see if having a shield actually pays off versus the hurry up and kill method.

Well so far in newbie-land i fear not the gingo, but from the sound of it, maybe I should. I have 350hp now and each gingo hit is usually 37-57 dmg whereas the kipee hits are 107 each. I was lucky in that fight...i got a dodge when I had about 10 hp left

it's not
that bad
will be not bad at all when they get round to giving some tlc to 1h (and ranged of course). However one on one with a 2h warrior it's not competative which is a shame.

Not to turn this thread into a debate on 2h vs. 1h, but if daggers are included in 1h, someone wielding two daggers can defeat someone wielding a 2h sword.
I think 1h and 2h are fairly balanced...1h makes up for its lesser damage with higher speed and dual-wielding/shield.
