Hi i made a quick build rogue but have a question regarding it equipped 2 short swords . can a rogue attack twice at level 1? I know would not get bonus on second roll but seems weird at level 1
When you take the Attack action and attack with a light melee weapon that you're holding in one hand, you can use a bonus action to attack with a different light melee weapon that you're holding in the other hand. You don't add your ability modifier to the damage of the bonus attack, unless that modifier is negative.
If either weapon has the thrown property, you can throw the weapon, instead of making a melee attack with it.

Tooltips (Help/aid)
As an addition if using variant human or once you have reached level 4 and can take it Dual Wielder removes the weapon weight limiter.
