I'm playing as a Seraphim, and I just got the Dual Wielding skill. I just can't seem to "switch it on", so to speak. I have a one-handed sword in each of the two weapon slots, but I can only use one or the other, not both at the same time. The manual is wholly uninformative on the subject. Can anyone help?
On that note, what the hell are shields for? I can use EITHER a sword OR a shield. What's the point with that?

Drop two one-handed weapons into a single weapon slot. You'll see them shift to sit side-by-side. This is the same for shields.
Make sure you drop it in in the green section of the slot, not on the existing weapon/shield or you will just replace one for the other.

I had tried putting both in the same slot, but that just switched them around. It seemed, as you say, to be a matter of dropping it two pixels to the left of where I was trying to put it. I found out purely by accident.

Ois, you are a GENIUS!!! You would think the manual would address something like that! No wonder I couldn't use a shield!

If you mean the Thau Blade (the one with the curved blade on each end) it's a bug according to the SacredWiki - it should work if you keep trying :
"A pixel glitch makes it difficult to have two Thau blades in the same weapon slot. These are one handed weapons, however, and a little patience will result in the successful use of two of them in the same weapon slot."

Dual-wielding Du Blades is tricky due to the size and placement of the sprites. The pixel placement for the Du blades are off or something. Just keep trying and you'll get it. So yeah it's a glitch. :-p
can any of you posts on how to perform the Pixel glitch,but something unusual happened
dual wield both swords in one slot then replace the first sword with the Thau Blade,but i cant switch the second with another Thau blade,can any of you posts on how to perform the Pixel glitch,just uh posts the procedure please,its the curve blade on each end I'm talking about,sometimes its caled thau but some is called Du blade,so uh please posts the procedure on the Pixel Glitch.

Holy necroposting, Batman!!!

So, I've been playing for a couple hours and I took dual wielding for my Seraphim. The thing is, either I'm doing something wrong, or the stats are bugged (or I don't know how to read them). Equipping two weapons rather than a weapon and a shield will reduce my defense (expected) and my attack/damage (WTF!) Using two weapons, my attack is less than it is by using only one. Also, the character only seems to be using one weapon in combat (there is no attack animation for the second weapon, she just holds it while attacking with the other). I'm not sure if the animation is supposed to show her using both weapons, but even if not, my stats should reflect that I'm using two weapons by making me have better attack (unless there's supposed to be some dexterity penalty that I'm not aware of and that's absolutely not mentioned in the manual afaik). So, can anyone enlighten me?
