What makes your entire post null:  The fact that you did not bring up anything about the perk of the straight swords having 4 directional attacks.

More importantly, he didn't mention not having access to the single best animation in the entire game, even though it's a 2h weapon and thus has to be balanced with those animations in mind(as opposed to other classes which have other advantages/disadvantages). I do think the two-handed sword could use a little bit of a buff, but it's a 2h weapon, so idgaf. Poles and 1h are the priority.

I fear Miaodao more than any other weapon. Nothing else has its combination of reach and speed. That said, 2h weapons pay a huge price for their lolstab, in terms of balance.

1h thrust may suck, but it's not like it costs you much (Italian sword only loses 1 cut and 2 reach to get a very powerful thrust, compared to Elite Scimitar). That's why I like my +3 Arabian Guard Sword; the 22p thrust isn't going to one-shot anyone, but it's a handy tool that didn't cost anything in terms of speed or damage to get.
