If you're dual wielding, you'll need at least twice the # of points. Wielding 2 weapons makes you only have .5% per point in Dual Wield in your primary weapons skill and .25% per point in DW for secondary weapons skill...

Keep in mind, this is what I thought I read on jandrall's site, and I may have screwed it up...

Example: you have 50 sword, 50 Dagger and 50 Dual Wield.

Wielding a Sword and a Dagger. your 50 in Dual Wield means you get 25% of your Primary (sword), so you'd effectively have 12.5 (not sure how it rounds) in sword and 12.5% of your Secondary (dagger), so you'd have effectively 6.75 in Dagger.

Samurai would have a better go at it since their secondary weapons (wakizashi) are also in sword class and don't have to use 2 skills.

There's my take on it... correct me if I'm wrong, please.
