not to mention missed the moment, still it's the beauty of this game, quite enjoy it

What I expected is not to click both instead of clicking any of it to do the trick.

Well that was a wrong expectation then.

Wrong. Try to coordinate two weapons at once yourself. It's something totally different compared to handling even the most complicated single weapon.
Hint: have a medkit ready when trying this.

What's so hard to understand here? The benefit is that you can attack TWICE while other characters can attack only ONCE!

For me the Dual wield mechanic is fine. Attacking with a second weapon while the first is on cooldown is a *huge* advantage. Seems to me you people want to do away with a click just for the sake of it....


In any case, if you want dual wield, go rogue. It has a less severe penalty (-25%). If you want to use strength-based weapons go Mino Rogue, while for dex weapons you should choose Lizardman or Ratman (ofcourse *light* weapons ONLY). Trait accordingly. Also you'll want to max Light Weapon so you can dual wield almost anything. You can have each Light weapon with a special move on it (!). Now add Backstab and/or Reach




Cheers !

I know we could strike almost at once, but it's only in the first turn if you hold different weapons.

Of course we have another attack, some people save it for a better strategy use, I want to attack twice at the same moment
That's why I try to use two weapons with identical condition.
