It would be better to not center a build around a weapon that is definitely going to be the next nerf. Also, procing two statuses means hitting with both weapons quickly enough. You can spam cast rivers and cause bleed in like .01 seconds, it will take actually landing an entire combo +1/2 to proc poison. So yeah, if you really have to design your character to be the 100,000,000th ROB user, then yes 2-handing it would be better than off handing a seperate status weapon. I can't wait for people to find out that there is actually more than one single weapon type than katana, and holy hell itll blow you mind to realize there are more than one ash of war.
