It used to not be this way. It used to be that all weapons got the (Level - 25)/3 bonus, even the two-handers. Which made fast 1-handers unquestionably superior in all respects to any 2-handed weapon in the game at high levels. It was only after lots of posts to the official Everquest message boards that we finally managed to get it through Verant's head that their combat engine was a little h0rked. After that, they changed the bonus for 2-handers and they started making 2-handed weapons with DMG/DLY ratios that kept them competitive with 1-handers.

I'm pretty sure that April 2000 patch made it so that the damage bonuses weren't identical for 1h/2h
