Return of Reckoning

So I have decided to take the plunge that is called Choppa. All risk, all reward baby.

The big question I've got on my mind is: Is 2H Choppa a viable pick? Or am I rocking the dual wield?

I remember reading awhile back that you lose far too much defense by going with 2H, but it's been some time so ...

Looking to find out if this is anywhere near viable, or if I should just stop trying to DPS with a Tank class.

I'm going on the large assumption that it's just smarter to go with Choppa, but if it's possible then I'll just keep on with Black Orc.
