How is it that a 28/30 Peacebringer parses the same and sometimes better than a 42/35 Trorsmang bo staff? Personally myself and many others over the past couple months have noticed 2 handers hitting for minimum damage about 75% more than they are hitting for max damage. I think the min/max hit ratio numbers may have been reversed in the damage coding causing weapons to be hitting for min damage every time they should be hitting max, and max for min. I played eq since day 1 and quit toward the end of velious, and 2h's on live made p99 2h's look pathetic... Same goes with 1 handers, but not quite as bad as the 2 handers. More feedback supporting this would be nice.

I completely agree with this. 2h dmg has been broke for a while now. I can run some parses for the Devs with logs if it would help. I remember 2h dps from live being pretty amazing even back in Classic. Its sub par dps compared to duel wielding as a warrior. It should be on par.
