WAR Dual Wield vs Mithril 2HS DPS Request

[damus1]

better ripostes with 2h also adds a not-insignificant amount of dmg. I've always been curious which is better as well but I've been too lazy to run parses on my warrior.

My calculations show better DPS on the Mith 2h until upper 40's. I am also taking into account dual wield skill, though. Also Mith 2h lets you wear a TBB which is some amount of extra DPS, which I did not factor in. Also Mith 2h give you better ripostes, crippling blows and criticals, which I am also not factoring in.

You'd have to parse under various conditions to be sure, but my bet is on the Mith 2h.

Are crits/cripping blows only with your main hand? If not, it seems like those should balance out regardless of DW or 2H
