By making a poll to make a suggestion, and then telling people what the poll is actually all about, you have in fact made a suggestion with a poll xD
Good old Kiwi logic... Drinking today rex?
Was sober when I did it... and I did it this way on purpose... it is entrapment to keeping an open mind before clicking topic...
and of course this below;

I understand why he made this poll... it's like "What do you think guys, this suggestion worth to make a topic and discuss about it?"
But yea, 1 would be enough anyway.

About the idea: not sure, but if "heavy weapon users slows the runs anyway" more prof wouldn't help too much... If a monster has 500 life and you hit 1.2k or 1.3 on it that really doesn't make too much sense imo.
It is not about the damage at all... it is about the 2.sec delay. Especially the lower levels like 1-15.
9 monster waves:
Axe [4 users / 50% ee] ... 1 hit kill ... 1 sec = 4 monster kills ... 0-1 Prof point each / Repeat = 8 monster kills ... 0-2 prof point each [2 Seconds total]
Battleaxe user [50% ee] ... 1 hit kill ... 2 sec = 1 monster kill ... 0-1 Prof point / No Repeat all 9 monsters dead.
Note: Higher levels, 2 man teams work together to kill a monster vs 1 man using a Heavy:
... 2 Axe users / 3 actions each = 3 seconds (0-3 prof
each) VS 1 Battleaxe 2 actions for kill = 4 seconds (0-2 Prof)

Im a BA user, but I dont think its that slow to get prof.
I gained alot of prof on my climbs using it in groups.
Also theres something called quick draw!
Would be better if you got +1 point for less hits than what it would take with axes instead of +2 for the hits.
Yup.. said QD in post... and on that... 48% QD is like 1 out of 2 actions will be 1 second = 3 seconds for 2 actions [I could be wrong]
I wish Heavy weapons dropped as much as normal weapons, they are rare, and especially on Hardcore...
but it is nice to find a useful one now and then.
You are right, it doesn't
seem to take too long, especially for the lower ranks upto like 10,
but in reality it takes 100% longer.

End Note: In a full group, heavy weapons slow the run down... everyone knows this... and they also know that 80% of the monsters killed is done by the rest of the group UNLESS, that person uses Quick Draw to increase his actions. Thus decreasing amount of prof points gained EVEN further.
