Dual Wielding question

[Sir_Die_alot]

All classes use their main hand damage for skills when dual-wielding, as per Bashiok: http://us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/4216984727#4

This is the way it is suppose to work, but leveling a barbarian I gave him a pretty good weapon to start (14 dps or so) but I didn't have an offhand for him. I figured I would find something pretty quickly and since it is suppose to use your main hand damage it "wouldn't" matter. It was a pretty big difference though (I had actual floating combat text up so I saw the numbers as they went out). I didn't extensively test it with other skills and such, but bash had a pretty clear difference.
