Dual wielding
Dual wielding
I made a frontline rogue with two daggers. Now, I understand you get to attack with both at the same time and not with one then the other, but how does it work? Do you get a faster attack rate, a bonus to damage (half the second weapon, the total of both)?
Is there an advantage to do so, or I am just wasting my second hand?

Re: Dual wielding
im very interested in this... anyone know?
Re: Dual wielding
I'd like to know the answer too.
You are aware you can have the same as a front row rogue from the rear once they have the right perk though, right?

Re: Dual wielding
Yes, I am aware, but I play with two mages, so the rogue will stay in the front.
Re: Dual wielding
It was mentioned somewhere in the forum that dual wielding does not work. It applies a Single Weapon benefit in respect to its skill bonuses and weapon stats. You do benefit if you weld different weapons, but, skills and stats of the specific weapon type only apply when you attack with it.

So best for rogue (assasssin etc) is to have a shield in offhand to up their evasion even more... is that right?xlaZuRelx wrote:It was mentioned somewhere in the forum that dual wielding does not work.

It would be nice if having a second dagger for rogues net some benefit, double wielding assassin dagger are such tradition.
Re: Dual wielding
Shield will be the most ideal though as for now. Dual wielding has always been a rogue thing, just curious why they did not consider it...
Re: Dual wielding
Hope they add Dual Wielding in the future.
But i on the other hand it's good to have a second "slot" for some other stuff

Re: Dual wielding
I do not understand too.
If i have 2 weapons in hands i have two attack powers for each hand.But i can swing only one weapon or another.

Re: Dual wielding
I haven't tested it too much, but I seem to do much more damage with 2 daggers than 1 dagger.
Maybe it only works with daggers?
Could be my imagination...
