Thread: Any idea as to when dual wield is being implemented?
Yep, and with only 4 professions coming with the release of the space expansion, all of which being piloting ones, it could be construed that the dual wield will be coming to pistoleers rather than an elite/elite hybrid class. We shall have to wait and see.

Actually they said that also I believe. They said dual wield will be comming to pistoleer and fencer and possibly one other profession.
Hmm seems like I got some interest in this no? /pointdown (sig)

Yes, this kind of surprises me. What happened to all of those "elite-elite" professions that were talked about so long ago? I'm sure we'll see something like it someday, but not in the SE apparently. Someday we might have to stop calling it the Space Expansion, and call it by it's proper namefrom marketing, "Jump to Lightspeed."
If you missed the announcement, head on over to Q-3PO's post and soak up what expansion related information is available. It looks like a heck of a lot of expansion for your gaming dollar (expansions typically cost less than the original game, and they never add onto the monthly fee). All I can say is wow. I half expected a new planet, but I think I can settle for 10 new space zones. 
The devs have said they want to add in new planets in the future and even advance the timeline, by the way. Here's to mounting my Z-95 with FWG5s!
As for an ETA on dual wield, heh.. we don't have an ETA on the basics, let alone a fundamental change such as dual wield. I still wouldn't put it past SOE & Lucasarts to bundle it in with the expansion, orrelease it at the same time. It'll be at least afew months, absolutely. That's not based on any correspondently info, just my really vague guess.
biwan:i'm glad i wasn't the only person excited about seeing that Z-95 in the screen shot 
i want a TIE Fighter too, but i bet they cost a pretty penny in faction..... so i better start saving now lol
First of all, 5 stars to the original poster for spelling it right! 
Secondly:

It could be possible, it's already been done on an X-Wing with Heavy Acid Rifles!

Oh that would be sweet if you could have multiple damage types...
Of course, it will make pistoleer a FoTM, but it would be cool.
