Do people who think this actually play the game very often?

You don't always have a ledge to throw someone off or lava to throw someone into. And even when you do, sometimes it's a bad idea because you want to get the loot.
Yes you do. Their combat design revolves entirely around always finding the nearest high ground. And it's always available. The only exception that comes to mind are big creatures and the looters in the crypt. And only because there's an oil barrel in the room you can blow up to one shot the entire encounter.

Anyway, this was about dual wielding which actually needs homebrewing to be viable.
