Even if he is over level 13. This is why a single point in a weapon for a warrior is far, far better than none at all. The 2-Handed weapon style bonuses will nullify the -1 penalty to damage, and he will get some substantial speed factor bonuses, but this won't make if for the lack of attacks per round.
