14-29k ww dmg 1 hand w shield after buffs
Don't know this "tase" barb, but between a 2 hander and a shield+1h ww, I'd guess the 2 hander has a longer rech and higher dmg. In the world of HU, shields make little sense pvp point of view if you are not a paladin with a blindingly fast block rate.
You can have a few effects here:
1. lower dmg on you vs opponent since it's 1 hander + shield
2. shield block rate is slow enough to only block 1 hit, letting x others connect. It doesn't matter if you have 75% block rate if you are getting ZOMG hits per second.
3. If your opponent has a 2 hander (lance/polearm) his dmg will be greater and his reach longer then you (i.e he can hit you, you cant hit him)
if opponent has not a 2 hander, then he has higher block speed than you.
I could be wrong but this is my best guesstimate available, given the information
