I was told that 2-H Axe Azure Knights do the most DPS, but lack defense. I was also told 2-H Swords do a little less damage, but increase your defense substantially. Can anyone confirm this? Also, should I build a glass cannon or vita build assuming I go 2-H Sword?

2 hand sword is pretty crappy for pvm tho. because less aoe attacks.

91+ lvl 2 hand is good

ask on the official forums, not here.

people got no clue what they are talking about here. well okay, it's not that much better on the official forums, but can't be worse than here.

go for dual axe + axe/shield, that's a good pve build in general. 2h suxx

I got told by more than one high lvl that it's the best end-game DPS there is, because of their skill Genocide. Just telling you what they told me.

genocide just has high damage. the problem is that it has a high cooldown, is slow casting, easy dodgeable (which suxx in pvp). sure, the def lowering effect is great, but what else are good 2h skills?
People will want you for tanking later, that means you need blindjab and bounce defender to survive at bosses. Shield Aks tank better than any Bagi to be honest and they also help their whole party with bounce.
there aren't enough good 2hand skills to make it worth using. Sure, a dual axe + 2h axe build should be deadly, but you are paper, which suxx at endgame.

just for example: i could solo space with total crap gear on a pserver with a 130 ak just because I had blind jab this skill is awesome, pvp and pve wise(when you need it vs mobs, else vs bosses)!

Lost me here @_@

He means with 2h build you are going to get destroyed on the higher level maps.

I use a Dual Axes and Sword/Sheild. I also heard that Axe/Sheild was good for pve as well because of the BLOW. Its great for Dualing and PVm, you get High dmg and High Defence. if your a 2H you will get DESTROYED. I personally destroy all 2H even when they are a few levels higher. Genocide is an EZ dodge, just like the dual wep lvl 91.

Thanks for your replies everyone, I decided I'm going 1-HSword/Shield. I only put in enough points to wear my gear, and then the rest into heal right?

generally yes. there are always variations as in more str and things like that, but for the most part str/dex for gear, rest in heal.
