Dual Wield - You dont actually Dual Wield, you just get an extra attack?

Would sure make selection of offhand weapon pretty useless except for passive stat and buff bonuses..
Is this the case?
Does the extra attack figure in the offhand weapon stats/bonuses etc. , Or do you just swing faster with the mainhand?

I have heard that you get one attack with the offhand and the rest on the mainhand

Absolutely true: the off-hand weapon gets you only 1 extra attack, so it's better to choose a weapon with a nice equiped effect (if you're powergaming

)

Ok so the actual damage or + factor or whatever matters not, you just swing an extra time with the mainhand weapon?
See, instead of having you make an extra attack, with the stats applied to that attack from your offhand weapon, you're saying that the offhand doesn't do *anything* at all other than the equipped abilities, correct?

You get one attack with your secondary weapon.
Not an extra attack with your primary weapon.

Ok cool so it does work properly, your offhand weapon damage and stats do factor in, not just the equipped effects.
Thanks
