So, I have nothing against tanks dual wielding, although I know they weren't suppsoed to be able to.

But for them to dual wield and be able to block attacks without a shield is just plain broken...

It's not dual wield.

It's a shield with an offhand (choppa in blorc case) skin applied on it.

Does this work with all races? I like the idea of Warrior Priest running around smacking people with books or DoKs holding two cups.

The case was for Blackguards, at least that I saw.
But if thats just appearance, i'm fine with it, just looks really weird

...It's possible, I think. I'll try on my DoK and WP.

EDIT: The second chalice is simply worn in the same off-hand.

It is just alternate appearance.

I hope there is a chosen shield that looks like a 1h.

So you think that this is going to last?

The fact they fixed being able to use another race mounts should tell you that you better not get used to this, it will be removed soon i can imagine.
