You flow seamlessly between offense and defense while wielding a weapon in each hand.
When you are wielding a weapon in each of your hands that you are proficient with, you gain the following benefits:
On your turn, when you take the attack action and score a critical hit with a melee weapon or reduce a creature to 0 hit points with one, you gain one additional melee weapon attack at the start of your bonus action.
When you take the attack action and use the bonus action to attack with a different melee weapon that you're holding in your other hand, you can either make 2 attacks or you can roll 2 attack rolls and add them together for one attack to increase your chances of hitting.
When another creature hits you with a melee attack, you can use your reaction to roll the dice for one or two weapons that you are holding and add the results to your AC for that attack, potentially causing the attack to miss you. If the attack misses and you only used one weapon hand to increase your AC, you can make a melee attack with your second weapon.
