Found two swordguards within 2 days of gameplay. The first was a good upgrade to my hc ww barb, first time using that skill and not too familiar with that. Level 48 atm which is the lvl req of the sword too.

Using the ias calculator, i can see that the framerate for using one or two is the same. Is that correct or a bug?

Getting the defense bonuses from both will probably be great, but will the damage be much less?

Pretty sure nobody cares.

Take the hint.

WW hits twice with 2 weapons
Once with 1 weapon

1 hand + Shield is a terrible way to WW for pvm

Right. I started out using ww with a shield .. cleglaws full set.. it seemed to hit quite slow. Using swordguard seemed to hit a bit faster, probably because it has longer range. I did figure out early that equipping two swords hit a lot faster and is the best way to use ww.

Just played around with the two swordguards now and it pretty much mangles anything i go through, hits fast, long range and is quite safe. Only issue now is what to put in the socket in the one sword ^^ I couldn't resist making one. Not sure if i'm going to spend another quest on the other. So many gear options happening now, getting pul and um from hellforge (7 characters, 3 left), so i am holding back and waiting till things are settling a bit and everyone is in act 5 frigid. It's going to be a hell of a grind (ww barb pun ^^) there leveling up. But fun too.
