Geez! No wonder I couldn't make sense of those numbers. I didn't think the damage was being done like that. I thought that number shown was the average of both your weapons and that both weapons had their own damage range. I'd still like the damage formula posted though because I couldn't figure one out that worked in all equip situations.
EDIT: Also why does your main hand become your off-hand when DW'ing. What I mean is if you use sword and shield you put your weapon in your left/main and the shield in your right/off-hand. But when you go to DW and put a weapon in your shield hand it gets no penalty meaning that became your main hand. Meaning what was previously your main hand is now your off-hand because it got the penalty.
If your DW skill is 10 or higher this is okay because your off-hand becomes stronger than your main, so your previous main hand(which becomes your off-hand when you DW) which has your, most likely, stronger weapon in it will become more powerful. Your main hand(previously your off-hand) is weaker which is okay since your probably putting a weaker weapon in it.
However before 10 the system is troublesome since you have to switch the weapons in your hands. Hope that wasn't too confusing.
EDIT2: When I'm taking about hands I mean in the inventory screen.
