WESS offhand procs at level 1. Ratio isn’t terrible and it has decent stats and ac. If memory serves correctly you fire procs at a static rate even when your dual wield and double attack skills are pathetically low. I could be wrong on that bit. Budget alternative is Skorpikis claw for those crummy lower levels when DW/DA skills are bad. Even with a sub-par ratio your offhand contribution to both melee threat and dps will be bad from mid teens to mid 40s. A single lucky proc from skorpikis or WESS will dish out big proportional hate for those level ranges even after the patch nerf.
Or as mentioned above just go with Staff of Battle.
