Barbaric Blow Issue

[Greinhed]

I noticed the following issue with Barbaric Blow:

 

Even though it's supposed to be a Full Attack, from the combat log it appears that my character is only making an attack with his main weapon (see screenshots below). Reading the tooltip for Full Attack, I thought it was supposed to be a simultaneous strike with both weapons, dealing double damage, or at least more damage than an attack with one hand. In my example below, the following strike, which was a standard one handed attack, actually dealt a bit more damage than the Barbaric Blow itself!

Is this a bug, or did I not understand the meaning of Full Attack correctly?

 

[cRichards]

When an ability that uses a Full Attack is used with a character using two weapons, the character attacks with both weapons, one immediately after the other. Does that help explain it?

Ah, so a Full Attack with two weapons appears as two separate attacks in the combat log, with their own crit/hit/miss resolutions, and separate Carnage attacks? And the effects of Barbaric Blow (+crit and increased area) apply to both attacks?

 

I get it now, thanks a lot for the speedy reply!
