Getting sick of bows and want a change of pace. Curious if anyone's pulled decent numbers using a front bar 2h and back bar dual wield.

    Half of the Cyrodiil runs it. Pretty much the most cheese setup that has ever existed.

    Ive tried dw/2h. Now im trying dw/snb. Snb is better for surviving IMO. Although I have never tried a trial yet. 2h seems better for pvp perhaps.

    DW is my offensive bar, SnB defensive + has morphs that do stuff like major defile, minor heroism ect.

    I expect the answer is unfortunately no. Running 2h/bow seems to pretty consistently pull lower numbers than dw/bow, and with endless hail still doing something like 5k dps on its own in a mediocre parse, I don’t think dw can put up any skill combos to get close to that. And poison inject offers a lot in terms of dps, too. Haven’t tried it, but from a thereotical standpoint it doesn’t seem good.

    There was a guy on forums a while back either in this topic or the pts that I thought said was getting close to 30k and was using like, single bar 2h. Could try finding that and reaching out to him, but the thread was about how summerset would kill his build so it might not have longevity if it works at all (never said how close he was to 30k).

    Go to player guides. There's a guy happily over there running it. Got enough dps for vet trials too.
