You master fighting with two weapons, gaining the following benefits:
You gain a +1 bonus to AC while you are wielding a separate melee weapon in each hand.
You can use two-weapon fighting even when the one-handed melee weapons you are wielding aren't light.
You can draw or stow two one-handed weapons when you would normally be able to draw or stow only one.
Even when you equip (actively have marked as equipped, not just in the inventory) two one handed weapons, (thus fulfilling the one in each hand requirement) the AC bonus does not show on a character sheet.
Did you mark one of the weapons for dual wielding? Try clicking the weapon, opening the Customize section in the sidebar, and clicking Dual Wield.
That did it. Didn't even realize that was in there, I almost never customize items, and that isn't... exactly the place one would think to look for such a thing - customization usually brings to mind changing the item for one reason or another. Thanks. Frankly, this is the first time in years that I've seen a mod be helpful here... Pretty much not since the OG team left honestly.
