<b>Consider weapons two weapons with 87.8 dmg rating and the same delay. Lets purely for the sake of argument say that the auto attack of this weapon does 87.8 dps.</b> With 68% double attack you are now doing 147.5 dps (0.68*87.8 + 87.8 ) With two weapons each with a 33% delay increase your weapon is doing 117.6 dps (87.8 - 0.33*87.8 )*2 this is roughly 80% of the double attack dmg <b> Now lets say that while double attacking an average of 50 % of your dps come from auto attack:</b> Double attack spec would do about 10 % more overall damage than just and agl speced duel wield (100-80)/2 90 % vs 100 % <b> Now lets add str crit bonuses to the duel wielder:</b> Assuming that @ 100 % crit one gets 30% more damage overall, 14 % crit would yield 4.2 % overall dps (30 * .14) The 4.2 % is only a 3.78 increase with respect to the double attack spec. (90*0.042) Then this is added to the duel wield percentage. <b> In the end duel wielding will do 93.78 % of the damage of a double attack spec. </b>[edit] stupid auto smilies
