Alright, im a 4 year vet who shoots with a 60d, some decent to good glass, i shoot people for newpapers and realty....
I have to over compensate on my 430ex flash with a gary fong diffuser to make up for the poor iso performance....
I need more iso so i can go lighter on the flash...
The 7d mark 2 and the 6d are the same price, Is a full frame sensor able to capture available natural light better then an apc?
I only have one l series lens and a lot of lenses that the 6d cant use so im leaning to the 7d mark 2 right now.... however, if full frame sensors are better and capture more accurately, should i go with a 6d then?

how hard is it to look it up yourself?
Obviously the 6d is a better long term investment, significantly better in low light too.
Sounds like you need to get yourself some fast prime glass, or learn to use your flash off camera. ISO performance should be a last resort fix, when comparing to benefits of more/different light setups, or wider apertures.
If you want to buy a new body for low light, then get the 6D. I can shoot mine at 25600 and it looks like a crop camera's 3200. 6400 on the 6D is as usable as 800 on most crop cameras.
def the 6D
the 7dmkii has a better viewfinder, but imo that's not nearly enough to compensate for the sensor quality
