I’ve read that weapon DPS is determined by main hand stats only, but that’s not what I see when I equip various weapons while dual wielding … i.e., my attack points go down when I equip a poor offhand weapon ( I run a non-burst dagger/dagger spec). Can anyone help cure my confusion here? Thanks …

Abilities 1 – 3 go off of MH damage, 4-5 offhand. The STATS on the weapons affect both.

Yeah … certainly I knew how the abilities work, but I swear I read that only the stats on the main hand weapon determined attack power even though my experience says otherwise. Maybe I just read a piece of bullkitten.
