It can be done by adding new two-handed weapon to exotic weapons proficiency feat. New weapon would have similar properties as khopesh.

base weapon values:
dmg: 1d10
crit range: 19-20
crit multiplier: 3

With an eye to half-orc it can be named as "orcish greatsword" and half-orc can have free proficiency whit if like a dwarf with dwarven axe and can have greatsword enhancements like a dwarf have axes.

..Or it can be orcish spear casue there is no two-handed weapon with pierce dmg.

Consider that with twf you get 2 weapons, and more hits in each attack chain. The consider things like wounding, vorpal, and other effects that have a higher chance to do something with more attacks. I think that is plenty to balance out twf with thf...

I think he's saying THF is underpowered compared to TWF.

Uh, you want to upgrade the damage of THF? If there's any "gap reducing" going to happen, it should start with decreasing THF's advantage in terms of gear acquisition: http://forums.ddo.com/showthread.php?t=251537

A combat style that requires 50% the number of weapon items does not deserve to have similar offensive power.
