Guild Wars 2

I can’t help but notice – as a thief using dual daggers – that anyone hoping to craft a pair of one-handed weapons is going to have to put in up to twice as much materials as someone who crafts a two-handed weapon. for example, a warrior using two swords will need twice the materials as a warrior using a greatsworkittenhe only one who thinks this is a little unfair? there’s no benefit to dual-wielding over a two-handed weapon, so I don’t see why it’s harder to make.

I’ve noticed this for a while, but now that I’m starting on my ascended weapons, it’s really starting to bug me. why is it that I’ll have to put in twice the work for my weapons than another player, just to reach the same end result?

am I just being silly here, or is this an actual problem? what do you guys think?

I agree. Makes no sense that 2h has more dmg, and for a half price of dual weapon setup.

I had read this earlier and didn’t have time to respond but literally just now I thought of a somewhat reasonable argument to say that its find as it is. I think the difference between Dual – wielding and 2H is versatility and variations.

In a 2H weapon you are stuck with the 5 skills as they are vs Dual – wielding you can mix and match for situations.

I mainly play guardian and I use sceptor/focus as one setup but I can pop in shield or torch for difference situations (not that I do, but I could)..

I know that Ele’s play Dagger Dagger but also Sceptor Dagger if im not mistaken and both have their perks.

Totally agree that its expensive to have to craft 2 vs 1 but if they find a way to remove that then they would have to find a way to have 2H switch there last 2 skills.

Im definitely not one to complain or nag about things so I won’t really care what they do but I can see people getting mad if Dual wielding get 2 weapons for the same price.. You know how it is right, someone is always upset about something..lol

But yes, I can see how the cost sucks for Dual-wielders.
