Does a weapon's effect affect both weapons when dual wielding? Annihilation, etc.

[drithius]

I'm guessing no - that each weapon  rolls separately for damage?  I'm simply trying to confirm since it's been nagging at me for a while now and I can't isolate the information in-game.

I've not played around with Dual-Wielding yet, but I would assume the fast attack speed comes from attacking seperately with each weapon in succession, rather than a single combined attack with both.

 

There are however abilities that use a "Full Attack" which deliberately attacks with both weapons.

[Torm51]

You are correct each is separate.

[Boeroer]

There are some rare weapon enchantments which grant universal buffs or debuffs, but usually weapon enchantments only apply to the weapon itself. For example speed (+20% attack speed - meaning less recovery after a strike with that weapon).

What about the +5 deflection of hatchets? Is there a point in wielding two hatchets?

[Boeroer]

Yes. It stacks. Deflection is not bound to weapons. You'll have +10 deflection if you are wielding two hatchets.
