Just another post about Dual wielding being bugged (that's never gonna be read)

Bug Report ID: #1089727540

Tested with Volcanic Fissure pretty extensively, but I have a feeling it's all Dual Wielding skills that relate to attack speed.

There's no way the tooltip attack speed is right when dual wielding. Tooltip says 1.89s, but clearly some amount of seconds greater than 2 is passing.
Maybe the attack speed penalty is being applied twice in the process? 2.457s seems like a very likely actual number.

I don't have a great way to test this, but I can't possible count to less than 2 while using this skill, despite no weapon swapping happening.

The tooltip is not bugged because it reflects "per quarter second" mechanics. The tooltip reflects the expected value, which is NOT the actual time taken. So I can't even properly take advantage of those mechanics.

I will actually die on this hill.

C'mon core mechanics being bugged to the point of unplayable is not month-5 stuff.
