Dual daggers kinda suck

[Xero]

Go dual wielding daggers and you end up bouncing off walls, meanwhile someone going unga bunga with a 2-handed greatsword just ignores the bounce mechanic while having range and damage that daggers lack. There's also the fact short swords get the same attack speed and moveset pretty much...

Oh well, having weapon balance in games is asking for too much I guess. Sure, dual daggers get better parries but uhh... Not all attacks can get parried, and good luck trying to parry when getting outnumbered.

If 2-handed greatsowrds are unga bunga, then 2-handed hammers are definitely kowabunga.

the swords I used were all slower.

Longswords and greatswords get much further reach and damage than daggers, which gives them the ability to easily hit multiple enemies at once.

All weapons are 1-handed/dualwield = bounce off of hard surfaces (including the armor on attack dogs) and 2-handed does not bounce on hard surfaces.

I am unaware of any exceptions to this no matter the weapon used. In tight quarters use a double handed grip, even more important the longer your weapon's reach.

The issue at that point is why ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ bother with daggers at all then? Or even fists, they get it worse as two handing them just makes them dual-wielded, thus, they bounce off walls. It's just idiotic that daggers and fists have no range and a lack of damage for... no real benefits in combat.
