Is pure 2H fighter good enough these days?

Every character performs better with clickies/consumables.

Are you not carrying remove curse/cure poison/cure disease pots? Are you not carrying Invis clickies/scrolls? Are you not carrying Heal/Raise scrolls at cap? Are you not trying to get a Jibbers for yourself? You don’t need past lives to have good numbers (although you do get a bit better numbers when you have the past lives) but you do have to put in a bit of effort beyond just smacking things to have good numbers.

rez/raise scrolls - yes
heal scrolls - some
curse/cure pots - yes
shield clicky - yes (shield is very important i have found)

The things you have listed there are standard fare, and no matter what I play I would either be able to provide it, or umd it to myself or the party.

I will admit, it is a bit disappointing when a teammate cant scroll a rez/raise after a party wipe leaves just them upright. :/ Max points in jump, umd every level! bring charisma pots/swappable!

i have tried to get a jibbers but i would rather play and have fun! i do have my tentacle which i will swap to, because its a severed tentacle and that is just epic!

If you don't yet have one and can be bothered to farm it. Epic Sapphire Studded Buckles has 3 x 20 minute shield clickies. Its a good quality of life upgrade to a 5 minute clicky item.

I actually have the buckle, but I forgot to dig it out. Definitely better than a wand.
