We have people now who are actually somewhat creative with procs and you just might be restraining their potential with this 1H rant. But whatever.

they would be creative if they worked. I've looted two proc items from Rok as well as made two rant topics about broken proc items from RoK.

Lets also not forget when we had to keep an empty secondary we also got an extra 4% boost for our passive base dmg increase. Was a fair trade to me...the 2nd symbol tended to make up for the 4%....kinda maybe

It was actually ok when we had to keep our secondary slot empty because it had a reason those times and yep, I've thought as well it's a fair trade. Then they nerfed the ability but removed the empty secondary slot need and I still think it was fair this way. That 4% nerf seems ok if we count that we get ~30 INT + ~100 pwr and an other proc not even talking about the +adornment, BoE, crit chance etc etc depends on what we use as secondary item.

On the other hand I hope the epic weapon will be a 1H weapon because it has a high chance that will replace my Plasma Wand (lol). But if it would be a 2H weapon well.. It has to be really good one to make me drop a secondary item as well into the trashcan.

What I expect is a 1H weapon with ~60 INT, ~250 pwr, ~7-8 crit chance, some kind of dmg proc (let's say, like 5-600 in avarage 2-2.5 times in a minute) and some class related goodie, maybe something about BoI or BoM.. But still be in line with the appropriate 1H slot related new Avatar loot what mages can use and to be slightly worse than that.

well I dont want 2 hander even with good effects on it, just because 3 items with different effects >>> 2 items with different effects depending on the situation in game.

It really depends on how good they make them. If they are similar to EQ1 epics, in that they are far better than any other item in game when they are released, I would say we would be better off with a 2 hander.

If, on the other hand, they are items that are similar in power to other gear dropping in game now, fuck 2 handers, i would want the flexibility of 2 secondary items.
