Mythic 2h Weapons compared to Mythic 1H Weapons

Cinco, I’m making this post in regards to balancing the 2h weapons with the 1h weapons. At the moment, 2h weapons are highly underpowered to their 1h counterpart. For example, mythic 1h weapons already have high damage, and they get an additional 2000 damage from the shield piece, giving 1h pieces about 1000 damage over their counterpart. 2h weapons traditionally have had more damage than the 1h weapons in trade off for less armor. That’s how its always been. A good way to balance this would be to take 1000 damage off the Mythic offhands, and add armor to them.

It would be nice to drop a mythic in the first place

True that.

Cinco recently stated on Discord that "No one uses 2h weapons in PvP"

I have no idea where he got this information from - people have been using 2h weapons in PvP since the dawn of time.

105 Cap - Volta Bow, Eloia Staff

100 Cap - Pure Stats

85 Cap - Derex Blasters, Mages would have used staves if they were powerful enough

80 Cap - 2h weapons were severely underpowered so no one used them

77 Cap - Lust Bow, Lust Staff

76 Cap - Phoenix Bow, Burning Branch

71 Cap - Sea Blaster/Phantom Crossbow, Wave Twister

I could go on and on.


The only 2h weapons that aren't used frequently outside of twink levels (like Green Ice Sword, Guru Hammer are used, etc.) are str weapons because they have been historically underpowered at the max level.

Historically speaking, 2h weapon sets have always had more damage than 1h weapon sets. This is because 1h sets have more defense (armor, health, h/s, dodge, etc.). Using the argument that "1h sets should have more defense and offense than 2h sets because of the range difference" is not a very good argument since a lot of skills are 12m and you get hit regardless if you try to kite your opponent or not.

I'm hoping for a Mythic Event in the near future after this XP event ends.

Many players have spent thousands of platinum opening Gold Chests and have since run out of platinum or refuse to open anymore boxes. In addition, with the XP event, there are many more players at the max level looking for sets than there once were a week or two ago.

There are simply too few Mythic items and sets to go around and many players do not have the ability to spend hundreds of millions of gold purchasing a set.

If we’re making requests, I might add that the str set needs a stat change. In my humble opinion the damage needs to come down and the armor needs an increase. Right now with a myth set I can beckon stomp and kill pretty much anyone if both hit. Not very fun and defeats a bear’s role in team play.

Only 2H weapon that's usable for long is Bow, other than something somewhere rarely. Last cap few mages kept asking to buff 2h int, that's why that the int 2h was buffed FEW TIMES.
I can co-relate cinco's statement but than the reason is obviously because 2h weapons weaker and that's for the main topic -

1- I don't have to pvp to know that's the trend that 2h weapons kept getting weaker since long, only dex 2h was viable but still weaker than what it should have been for some reason, I explained that many times in past :P

2- Please no pvp fix for now, we should wait :D

I need a ring and amulet to test out the two handed mythic axe set and verse someone with 1h.

+1 I thought with this xp event golden chest rates would get improved for the weekend or better drop rates or something, But it seems mythic set will always cost 300m+ unless we can get special events to farm the rest of the pieces from the set or a vendor.
