I am curious what other players use for duel wielding (besides dagger since I will be using them once I get assassin's blade) ATM I am using maces but was also wondering if I use swords if the loss of attack will be fine since they can attack faster, the faster the hits the more damage maybe? all thoughts/ opinions are welcome.

Also on my build I am making a Duel dagger/ archer build, (using bows for some sneak attacks/ soul stealing. This is my build so I would like some feed back on what I should add/ don't need. so thanks. http://skyrimcalculator.com/#7368

I went for this build: http://skyrimcalculator.com/#7380

Shadow warrior in fights w/ multiple enemies is awesome. I used dual daggers (mehrunes razor as main, blade of woe as 2nd) w/ a bow for long distance shots. I did not do much enchanting/smithing, because that would make the game way too easy (especially w/ the 30x multiplier we can get).

After looking though all the perks and adding to how my playstyle will be I figured this will be my build. http://skyrimcalculator.com/#7611 Although.... I am still not sure about putting points into Steady Hand, slowing time by 50% is nice but only if I plan to attack them with my bow in actual fights to. I only use bows in far distant sneak attacks only for the first shot and once they come at me I finish them off with melee. It has worked find for me without fail so far. So I am thinking about taking those two perks off and putting 1 into Matching Set and last into Enchanter to make it 5/5. Basicly this way. http://skyrimcalculator.com/#7615 I guess it just matters how others play..
