Could thieves please get access to this? As a thief, I enjoy dual weilding the same weapon more than any other combination of weapons (except maybe the looks of Sword/pistol but the skills Idc for). Mesmer’s get access to dual swords I mean, how unfair. Doesn’t have to be fast, or super hard hitting, or multiple conditions.
Ofcourse, with any addition (weapon, skill, sigil, etc) it would need to be tested, worked out, and come out balanced enough. I don’t ask for this in the February, March, or even April patch. Just hope that someday I get to dual weild some cool swords and see what [Dual skill] I get from having 2 swords.
My suggestion for the 3 new [off-hand] Sword skills, even though I doubt they will be applied:
3- Suprise attack: Roll towards your foe while dodging to dual cut your foe. Moderate damage. Activates roll traits (Uncatachable, Power of Inertia, etc). Consumes 15 endurance (spammable, but costly). Costs 4 initiative.
4- Side cut: Cut your foe, bleeding them and dealing low damage. 3 Stacks of bleed for 8 seconds. Costs 4 initiative.
5- Weakened spot: Charge a sword stab (for 1/2 a second) and hit your foe. If they are bleeding, deal bonus damage (25%). Costs 6 initiative. Can be used on the move.
