Whoever told you dual-wielding on Master is weak was either lying, ignorant, or a dumbfuck.
I agree that dual wielding is strong. A new playthrough I did very much proves it. This game values speed and stopping power over actual damage. If you keep hitting too fast, enemies have no time to react.
However, there is no need to become super powerful in dual wielding One Handed. Stealth is more than enough.
He can kill each giant or mammoth in two to three blows? A stealthy person with much lower One Handed skill can kill each in one blow without ever getting noticed or caught.
And no, it won't be slower. With stealth rolling, you can move very fast and hit people one after another.
I was 15 feet away from Movarth the ancient vampire. Within one second, my blade was in his chest and he died. You can move very fast in stealth and hit and kill people very quickly.
