Wait what.. You cant like.. use two swords anymore..? Or is it just if its different weapons, like in the mace and sword example?
Because you can equip two swords and attack, but I suppose that might just do the damage of one then?? (thats confusing if thats the case)

Going to disable the ability to equip two swords at once but I have exams. Right now only the best sword counts.

What if you're using a sword and a dagger? A dagger and a mace? Etc.

The one with the most dps, isn't it? Or does it ignore how slow a mace is, and choose that over a dagger, even if a dagger would deal more dps?

Does that count only the damage though? Or does it count the speed as well, and even the skill so that it counts the dps of either weapon?

It chooses the one in the right hand (the one that shows the weapon in the slot background) in all cases but in case the right and is empty or a ammunition or shield item is in this slot.
It does not bother with the stats of the item.
For parry the weapon with the highest defence value is selected.

So my advice: Do not equip two weapons
