How to Dual Wield and Switch Weapons

Equipping Two Weapons

Place a weapon in your main hand (right-click to equip) and another in your offhand. Not all weapons support dual-wielding—single-handed weapons like swords work best. Two-handed weapons cannot be dual-wielded.

Dual Wield Combat

When dual-wielding, your attack pattern changes. Left-click performs alternating strikes from each weapon. Right-click may trigger special dual-wield abilities depending on your weapon combination. Dual-wielding increases attack speed but reduces individual hit damage compared to two-handed weapons.

Switching Weapons Mid-Combat

Press your weapon swap key (configurable in settings) to switch between equipped weapons or swap your offhand and main hand. Switching has a brief animation, so time it during enemy cooldowns.

Stamina with Dual Weapons

Dual-wielding consumes stamina faster due to increased attack speed. Manage your stamina carefully—you need reserves for dodging and blocking. Practice weapon swaps to adapt your strategy mid-fight.
