Normally I would think the additional stats from a properly itemized 1-hand + shield would outperform a 2-hand, but the Valour capstone trait in the Blue line clearly favors the opposite.
Is there an obvious correct choice between the two?

Not really, it depends on many thingns. In general I would go with a 2-hander. Because it gives me more dps. But if the fights require more group healing I'd probably switch to sword and board. Valor is nice as a passive tank healing, but there is not much difference between 2h and 1h when it comes to Valor.
If Valor favor 2-hander, why game have healing shields for blue cap (outgoing healing + crit + phys)?
