I'm just wondering cuz I rolled with an eth otah bb in 1 hand and an eth death CS in other hand. I was wondering if anyone knew how the dmg worked using 2 weps at time using WW? I'm wondering if I was better off using one of them as a 2h wepaon or two of them together. I tried looking online for ab out an hour but couldnt find anything explaining how your offhand weapon works or whatever.
So ya I hope my question isn't confusing but basically just wondering if using 2 1h weps u get like a deduction in how many hits you get off with your ww or what
Thanks

2 weapons give you more ww ias

means you get more possible hits per sec then with only one weapon


lets say with one 2 handet weap you do 2 hits per sec with 5k dmg
and with 2 weapons you do 4 hits per sec while ww with 3k dmg


but keep in mind... the cb of your death in offhand dont work for your first hand... sou you only get cb hit, when your death hits... not if your oath is getting a hit

no it will be way too slow.
Death should be in your second hand for sure.

if you can't find info, maybe use a ias calculator on google and try different set up.
