why do most barbs use two handed weapon for pvm and pvp-bva? why is dual wielding not as popular?

2 handed weapons do more damage. (more dmg = more leech and faster kills)
dual wielding only 1 weapon hits per time, actually do less dmg.
Martel is best pvm barb weapon.
BvB, battlehammer is best Imo, but people also use naga or executioner sword for more range.

If you got a kixi lance its nearly same as martel

Due to range 2hand weapons are best for bva and tvt

Lance (do people still call bvcs speeders?) best range/damage and ias doesn't work on ww in classic. (at least on legacy assume d2r is the same)

Mart is pvm.

Me trev, and viperlld all used to play a ton of classic.

Triple dur is 100% a must if you plan on using it for pvm.

You can but you generally just fair worse in both duels. I'd rather just make 2 barbs if i was gonna bvb lol.
