I've said it b4 & will say it again. It seemingly was an unstated intention from early on to 'balance' the 'op-ness' of Mindsquasher by completely denying barbarians the use of almost all endgame 1-handed blunt weapons when lvl cap was raised to 60 (i.e. to somehow 'compensate' these matters by nerf-capping 2-weapon-combo blunt barb's damage/dps potentials; bad idea to begin with, imho). Here we are years later: MS cd has been nerfed hard, oh, but barbs still cannot use these weapons? Uh, are knights right arms just so much bigger & stronger than any barb's? Do the grips somehow mysteriously fit a knight's hand only? FFS! Ok, I do get how a knight must use one-handers only; they use shields. That makes perfect sense. However, what plausible ingame justification is there now (or was there ever, really) for having such an nonsensical 1-handed-weapon-use-ban for the melee class that rightly should be able to wield any & all of every kind? Hmmmm? Just sayin'...
