I think the Longsword's 1hr2 is a special sweeping move? That should be different from Sun's 2hr2, I think. Longsword's sweep is great for catching roll dodgers. Having the poke while two-handing is very important for PvP, though, since that enables you to stunlock almost everyone. But, as you said, the Sun Sword has a good amount of damage over the Longsword's (debatably) better moveset. I remember most people preferring the damage.
