Just to clarify the:
Sword of War

OR

I was thinking about dicking around with some of the other 2handers besides the Bar Mace, despite it being a fantastic weapon itself. Played with the Miaodao and liked it too, but the cheaper Dao is much more sluggish, so bleh.

What do you guys think are the best 2handed weapons?
Based on personal experience and such.

Obviously the HBS and Longsword are among the best.  However I spent 8 gens as a 2h and REFUSED to use them.  It's not challenging IMO.  There is nothing wrong with people who use such a powerful weapon and believe me....  some of them have plenty of skill.  But I always wanted to be different.  I never wanted people to attribute my victories to my weapon etc. 

The Two Handed Sword is nicely balanced.  It's not going to win any awards with it's stats but it fluid.  It's one of the few weapons which has enough speed to compete with Longsword spammers yet has a LITTLE extra reach allowing you to compete with longer weapons as well.  The Two Handed War Axe is fun believe it or not.  Again poor stats but it's very useful.  I had a lot of fun with the Persian Battle Axe.  It's funny as hell watching top notch 1h players over extend themselves offensively because they want to protect their shield.  The Great Axe is a better version of the Persian but difficult to find on the market.  The Long Iron Mace is a lot better than people realize.  It has a goofy stab animation which allows you to hit people point blank as if you were using a short spear.  The knockdown is also nice.  However my favorite 2h weapon has to be the Sword of War.  It's very long giving you plenty of build options.  It's pretty fast and hits pretty hard etc. 

It all depends on what you like.  Each weapon/build will force you develop a unique fighting style.  I constantly traded my gear for money so I was always adapting to something new.

Only real niggas use the long iron mace

I had more fun with that weapon on the duel server than any other.  That stab knockdown is awesome.

Two Handed Sword probably the most balanced of all for siege.

I like "Great sword", it is pretty sword, glows blue in moonlight.

Also Meowdao is cool, abusable weapon.

for some reason I actually always read MeowDaHoe, it has been stuck in my head for the past 2 years..

But seriously

No

Erm a 1H hybrid would be a grosse messer or whatever. Longsword is technically a 2H hybrid for polearms

Grosse messer is strictly 1h, when he says 1h hybrid, I'm pretty sure he means weapons like the Langes Messer, Fighting Axe, Military Sickle, etc.

Anyhow, the best 2h depends on how good YOU are and how you plan to use it. I prefer the Dadao, just because I think it looks cool masterworked with Final Boss' Jarold's Heirloom texture pack!

Yeah that's what I meant... Longsword/HBS is not among those so... stilldoesntmakeanysense.

[Kadeth]

In my opinion longsword is the best sword in game

Agreed. I had a good laugh to myself the other day when I picked up a "Balanced Longsword"

The two handed sword is completely horrible. I would advise the entire community not to use it.

:p
