Need help deciding on whether to sell or to use

hi guys, I need your help on the decision. I currently have:

1H fafnir sword
239 atk 3L legendary pot (40% boss, 30% boss, and 9% str) and i will be putting on a 20% boss neb

Also, i got a:
2h fafnir sword 246 atk, 3L epic with 20% boss neb.

The thing is I can't decide whether to use the 2h or to sell it. I am thinking of using the 1h fafnir sword as bossing because it already has very decent % boss on it and my shield has 30% boss too, also because of 1h has higher dps than 2h. On the other hand, the 1h fafnir sword isnt great for training and I am thinking of cubing the 2h sword to % total dmg or % atk. The question comes to whether this is worth it or not or should I just sell it and focus on spending the funds on my other equips. I currently have around 3b pure meso left if this is necessary to know.

Thank you

2h have higher dps than 1h. but in your case, 1h will defiantely be a better choice. 70% extra boss damage will make up for the weapon multiplyer.

Basically: the loss in attack speed of a 2h is made up by its higher attack multiplier
Pros of 1h:
- Shields can be scrolled for attack
- (don't need to cube another secondary if switching to pally after RED)
- your shield and 1h sword have great pot already

Pros of 2h:
-better potential if you can hit speed cap with it

You should keep the 1h, unless you're willing to cube a secondary and the 2h sword ( and get decent SI on gloves even) IMO

I would use both like how you were going to use them. Unless you need the mesos that bad for your other equips.
