I had no idea of the LCS what a bugger.
I also did some tests with almost identical two handed and one handed swords agains several monsters. The damage was purely physical and I was using swords that did not vary in damage much. I was testing for around one hour and stopped the monsters with cloak of shadows to have a good look.
With the one handed weapon I was almost killing a monster with two hits. With the two hander I was getting around 85% off the life with two hits. So yes there seems to be a LCS but it is in no way 50% reduction in damage, more like 15%.
Once again this was only with swords. Maybe using a claw you get extra benifits. I'll have to test this.
As for my damage with the hellslayer there is nothing special that I have done. My str is 260 the weapons damage is 98-598 phy + 150-250 fire which gives me 399-1854 damage on BF. I also use the might merc to boost it up to 539-2706.
