I've decided to invest in a new ego, and I'm deciding between a 2H and a Mace. Their combat-use is pretty similar except that I can use a shield with the Mace. Are there any other notable differences between the two that may factor in choosing an ego? ^^;

Not really. It's pretty much the added defense from being able to use a shield with a mace that is the biggest difference. 2H has a wider splash radius; but that's a pretty small difference by comparison.

You get a nice smash boost when you use a twohander.

isnt the point of creating an ego to get sheer power?? i'd choose the 2-hander if i were you. i have an ego mace, str 23 and soc 22 but i wish i'd have gotten a 2 hander. the only bad thing about the 2 handers that i can see are that the ego repairs cost more and it takes up more space. my ego does 17-101 dmg right now. mmm i dont feel like i can rely on it for hard monsters. id rather just use my upgraded mace and not waste ego dura.

2hander has more stun
2hander has better defense than mace+shield because of this, when handling massively multi aggro.

2h is at least a viable ego choice. Mace ego I almost never see.
