If you are only comparing weapons of the same type with no proc, then yes. However things change when comparing 2h vs dual wield. As dual wield becomes more reliable, 2 poorer ratio weapons will surpass a single superior ratio weapon. Primary hand damage bonus also exerts a disproportionately favorable effect on 1h weapons, because the flat damage bonus represents a greater percentage of the lower average damage weapons. Additionally, dual wielding is the only effective means of increasing frequency of procs since their activation rate is set at x times per minute based on the character's dexterity.
