Well look at it this way, if you've got a 3x damage multiplier against ranged, with a 340 baton, 4x for hit3, and two of them..... I don't think so, no way in hell
Why it sounds appealing, maybe because you'll be able to hurt another melee, but thats why I posted about melee mitigation
Pistolers have been discussing dual weilding too, and they don't get a bonus for shooting melee, so its more practicle, but still rather unfair to picture two 420 Geos aimed at any one firing off last ditch once a second.....

umm guys it was never stated that you would just get 2 existing weapons to use. it'll more likely be something like min:xx max:XX really low speed, and just have an animation of 2 blades as opposed to 1, probably can't use the higher specials too.

I dont think you will get a damage bonus but more of a speed and accuracy bonus. (After CB it wont be so easy to speed cap) Maybe they will also double the HAM costs?

No one knows exactly how dual wielding is going to work. For all we know it might just be a visual thing. Meaning that you only use one weapon at a time like we have nowbut they have changed the animation so it looks like 2 weapons at once.

I was under the impression that it was to be mostly a cosmetic addition to the game with no real practical application in PvP or for that matter PvE.

It will most likely be a new dual wielding weapon as it would be far simpler than existing weapons where you could have someone using weapons of different damage, damage type and AP. This is alot for the game to calculate.
