Guild Wars 2

I’m trying a P/P build, and I have a question with how weapon damage works with dual wield. Would my offhand weapon quality determine my Unload (dual skill) damage? Or would the damage be same if I had exotic+exotic vs exotic+white ?

Also, if i have +5% damage rune on both weapons, would I be getting +10% total? or just one of them? Thanks!

Your weapon quality will matter because it directly effects your power/attack.

Only one rune will work so you will only be getting 5%

“Always on” sigils stack, but I’m not sure if you get 10% damage bonus on both weapons, or 5% for each. Go to heart of the mists, talk with weapon NPC, go to second tab, pick “steady” pistols and test it on dummies – first with just one sigil, then with two of them. If auto attack deals the same damage in both cases, that means these sigils do not stack.

So, I have tested it, and +5% damage on offhand won’t work on main hand – it will only increase offhand’s damage by 5%. That means your unload will deal 5% more damage with 2 of these sigils equipped.

That’s very strange. I ended up doing Sigil of Force (5% damage) on main hand pistol, and Sigil of Fire (30% on crit to trigger flame blast) on my off hand pistol. I noticed that the Sigil of Fire not only procs when I use Unload, but also when I auto attack (remember my main hand pistol has 5% damage).

Perhaps Sigils are “unique” stacked, meaning two of same sigils only count as one.

Yes you can only have one +damage sigil active. You can only have one bloodlust type rune active. Some critical effects share the same timer. So mix them up.

You can only have one of any type of Sigil equipped.
