I used Two handed and now duel weild, and I prefer two handed. duel weild misses a lot and don't give so much damage.

But Hunters are a ranged damage class. If you're swinging in melee so often that it matters, you're doing something wrong.
It really comes down to three things: Stats, enchants, and oils.
For a good part of the time after reaching 70th, 2-handers offer the best stats. But there are some nice 1-hand weapons which come along a bit later which have the advantage of higher enchantment results and better MP/5 with mana oils.
Not to mention that dualwielding looks so much cooler. Too bad the itemization doesn't allow for it without some massive farming and luck when it comes to other classes needing them.

North, you're still alive? :P
And i really prefer a 2hander for looks too, unless it's dual wielding identical weapons.

I really like the new two hand badge axe, but all the weapons are so different that it would really depend on individual weapon aesthetics to me.

I've been really bitchslapped by real life lately, so I don't even have WoW paid for these days. It's fun being a pioneer within the field of emergency medical services, but it's horribly stressing when you pretty much aren't paid (yet), have more loans and debt than most third world countries, work yer **** off to get the project onwards, and lastly try to keep a social life runnin' to avoid the "ghoul" stamp.
So these last months I've been too busy to even surf these sites, not to mention actually post.

WTF are all these hunters talking about "I use 2handers because I get UBER BIG HITZ, and i miss alot with my offhand, LAWLZ"!!.
Your all morons. I dont even have raptor strike on my bars. The only consideration of my melee weapons is how do they enhance my ranged attacks. If I'm going to melee, its going to be with a wing clip and step back, even if I only step back 2 steps to get off the finishing blow. Wing clips are instant, raptor strikes are not, so having a slow weapon means your waiting on your weapon speed for it to actually swing.
Otherwise I would have rolled on the decapitator or something. Seriously.
And Athien mentioned it, but, for those who needed a little more explanation,
Wing clip is a special attack. All special attacks, be it by a rogue, warrior, or shammy, count as a 2handed attack, regardless of what weapons you have equiped, so for the purpose of calculations, special attacks count as if you are swinging a 2hander, which in general requires 95 hit rating to never miss in a raid environment, much less in pvp. A simple trip to wowwiki gives a more in depth explanation if you want to educate yourselves a little bit.
Good to see North show up. I've missed his condenscending posts :D

I use two felsteel longblades with +20agi to each, just for the agility (SV spec).
I'd say they're borderline useless compared to some weapons if you're not stacking agility (I.E. MM or BM)
