Critical Hits and Dual (or Tri) Wielding

[wogle]

How do critical hits work when wielding more than one weapon? I have a ninja with a Hatchet (inflicts weakness on a crit) and a torch (inflicts burn on a crit), but any crits he makes don't seem to trigger both effects; just one or the other. Am I missing something, or are the enemies I'm hitting immune to one or the other?

My original plan was to try to get him into a crit-effect sudden death ninja; he's a lab rat with four trinket slots that I'm going to fill with the various 'condition on crit' trinkets (I think there are at least four..). Two weapons, four tinkets, and the ninja passive that inflicts bleed means he could deal all seven conditions at once. If only one weapons' condition is applied, I'll have to use the game room's sword stand..

I was wondering this exact same thing. It seems dual wielding only inflicts one weapon's status, not both. But there's rule or anything definitive I've seen about it. An answer to this would be cool.

I would have thought more people would have wondered this, but I didn't find anything online...

I think it might be chance-based. If it doesn't flat-out say "[Status Effect] on crit", then you're not guarenteed to have it applied. You can still have every effect applied, again, it's just not guarenteed.

Maybe I'm wrong, but that's what it feels like to me.
