I think the general Idea is Dual axes are good in PvP. I was just pvping with my axes and I can say this much: They're not the best at 1v1 but they hurt and in 1vSeveral they are phenomenal. Do you know how good it feels to sprint into a group of Wizards and kill them all then die from a rogue ganking you? I actually get a decent amount of tickets, on my 1h I didn't get many tickets because I couldn't kill fast enough. One thing I miss about my one hand is *Block*.

DPS:
DA > 1h
DEF:
DA > 2h

General idea: If you're not willing to farm both 2h and 1h go dual axe.

We had a long party last night, and we had no cleric. One of us was DA-only DA(no 1H/2H). He was so bad, I almost have to ban him. He couldnt tank, couldnt attack, always run...That was terrible.

2H would be a better choice if you only farm one of them(1H/2H/DA).

IMO 1H is crucial for a warrior if you want to survive, tank, use the buffs. I just can not use my DA in parties much with the buffs. But, If I dont have to protect anyone, and have cleric support, I use DA, and very satisfied with the outcome :D

And, I never needed 2H. 1on1 1H/warlock is good enough/better. 1toMany DA is better. Sorry 2H :) 1H/DA warrior/warlock is all I need.

Yeah dual axe isn't good def wise unless you have your def passive up to date :S. I'm a good DA but I wear protector so I have less phy def.

Yeah most people (including myself) forget that most of dual axes skills hit multiple enemies, whereas a 1 hander can only hit one, shield skills being the only exception.

Now I wanna play one again too T.T

Is it? DA\Cleric isnt as good as 2H\Cleric in PvP. But, will be fine in PvE.

IMO
Cleric Sub: 1H\2H
Warlock Sub: 1H\DA

Actually, the choice is up to you.
Although DA has defensive passives, 2H offers you more protection with KD\KB. In other words, DA is more vulnerable than 2H.
