i chose the barbarian because i wanted to use 2h, and now it is clear that its not an option in inferno. of course alot of people have seen the dude posting some videos here with 1700+ dps axe, and yes it works out fine then. but for someone who cant play 24/7 its not possible. so if i want to play a new char i have to sit for 40+ hrs again to reach inferno. to me playing in lower difficulties is not really fun, i feel like the challenge starts in inferno, and probably most ppl think so.
so, i would like to ask the ppl that follows the community tightly whether or not your impression is that blizz will change things so that 2h will be an option?
also as a short digreesion i think its almost beyond ridiculous to not include the necromancer, and i have zero belief that they will not. im totally sure it will show up in the first expansion, and that this is done merely due to economical reasons. they _know_ that people will miss this caracter and by doing it this way they will force alot of people to buy both d3 AND the expansion even though they are getting sick of d3 at that time.
With today's change in Inferno difficulty, 2H could become a viable spec once you have some decent act-appropriate gear. I'm running a dual-wield build (linked in signature) and was doing OK yesterday, so I'm eager to see how it works today. Try it out once your server comes online. Maybe you'll be surprised.

By maybe, reducing the damage of all mobs in acts 2,3,4 and making specific reductions in abilities to some others?
I mean, the patch is loading right now and its all about reducing the difficulty (though without buffing the classes at all). I'd say try playing again today after the patch, 2H may be much more viable now!
