duel wield

[rainen2505]

How can I duel wield, when is this possible?

btw: Is duel wielding alot better than using a shield?

From what I've seen there are weapons called "paired weapons" which are pre-made. They come in Sword/Sword, Dagger/Sword and I assume Dagger/Dagger (although I hadn't seen those yet but it makes too much sense for there not to be) which you can start using at either level 10,15 or 20 I am not entirely sure. Quoting soldeus' Orc Brute Guide "Paired weapons give your skills a 1second cd with increased energy regen rate." which would mean using paired weapons would give you a much greater DPS compared to sword and board. However each weapon combination is more beneficial than the others in different situations.

Hope that cleared up everything!

for the warrior archetype
level 10 unlocks paired axes and 2h axes
level 20 unlocks all paired weapons except daggers, and all 2h's are unlocked as well.

Paired weapons consume LESS energy, they dont increase your energy regeneration rate. And the CD depends on the speed.
example:
8.67 gives about 1.2 sec CD and this is Fists and Sword and Dagger if I remember correctly.
10.00(daggers) give 1.0 sec CD.

i ve tried blunt+shield and paired axes during cb

mace consumes a lot of energy,but has high base dmg,yet u can use shield which gives def and access
to your parry ability which reduces damage taken.but usually it takes time to kill a mob wit blunt,coz
frequently u run outta of energy

paired axes,they ve consumed very little energy per action,but do less base dmg,but it rarely stops,yet
u losin your shield's def which was 80def or so at lv19 and parry ability,it makes u much more vulnerable

i ve heard that spear+shield way to go for warrior,and saw many warriors usin that,i ll definitely try at
