To game desingers: Why thief is geting only main hand weapon when guardian get main and off hand? Why are you lazy?

honestly i'm content as long as axe works.  i think their reasoning is we technically get five skills with axe and it's combinations.

I guess it's because they didn't want to make more abilities, especially Dual Wield abilities, than strictly necessary.

With just the main hand, they only have to design the auto, two regular skills and two Dual Wield abilities.

But if they added an offhand axe, they'd have to create not only two offhand abilities for it, but also five more Dual Wield abilities for Axe/Axe, Sword/Axe, Dagger/Axe, Pistol/Axe and Sceptre/Axe.

They're going to run out of MH weapons at some point.

Then they still have two-handed weapons to give out.

Idk but is it just me or is the Axe brain-rattlingly loud now? 👀

Also to rub in no Dual Axe they made Frostfang the WV leggy XD I'd totally make and keep it for Off-hand if I had reason to. Already have Soo-Won Axe.
