So far I can only find the Maelstrom's Arena Weapons as the best. Are there others?

    Master weapons i.e Masters greatsword (vdsa - veteran dragonstar arena) and VMA Greatsword are the only two unique two handed weapons in the game, imho vma twohanded wins by miles though.
    Ah, e-communities - the "pinnacle" of the internet............yeah, right.

    2nd vdsa ?
    3rd Crafted CP160 2Hand Weapon

    Is that right?

    Okay I see, I am using a set for 2hand but i was hoping for some 2 handed set that you find in dungeon that may better than what u can craft.

    Best for what? That's the question we need answered here.

    But the just of it is the master greatsword is for pve or a NB ganker with a posion on it.

    The vMA two-hander​ is for everyone class in PvP, as crit rush is the go to gap closer and it makes that better.

    Apart from VMA and VDSA all weapons are the same. The only thing that really matters is the trait (where sharpened is the goto most of the time) and the set that the weapon belongs to.

    So you are trying to dps with a two hander in pve? That is not going on work unless you are a NB or temp.

    The two-hander is missing 3 things to make it viable for pve dps. First being a good single target dot, the second is an AOE skill that I'd good and the last is a spammable that is not cast time. As a NB, you can sort of overcome this with surprise attack and power extraction but you are still lacking a good single target dot. With a templar, you can sovle the same problem with just jabs but still lack the single target dot.

    You did mention dungeons, so that means pve. I did not see your single line response about WW PvP.

    http://en.uesp.net/wiki/Online:Hunt_Leader

    Or this-

    http://en.uesp.net/wiki/Online:Salvation

    Would work.



    And you leave a lot of questions open in the OP. Like what class you are and what you mean by best.

    For PvP the best set for two hander for sorc and dks would be http://en.uesp.net/wiki/Online:Sword-Singer on your front bar with a clever alchemist back bar bow.

    For the NB and temps, it would be different.

    And please use proper punctuation, this is a forum, you have tons of time.

    Since poisons have been released that DoT is completely useless compared to a Ravage Health poison that deals 7-10k, the only reason vMsa is better is because it gives 189 Weapon Damage and that's a lot, it's a big difference when you compare it to a regular 2h.

    Just because I mention im looking for sets in dungeons doesnt mean im working on a pve build.
    And how do you know I am not wearing a pve build currently?

    My punctuation is wrong? Your brain is wrong this is a forum, you have tons of time.

    I have no idea anything about what you are asking about because you are not sharing vital information. If you shared more information on what you were looking for and such, we would not be having this disconnect on the intent of this thread.


    Your​ response at the end reminded me of this-
