How does this punching work exactly? Is the idea that the offhand is on a different timer and is ready to roll if I wait long enough to unequip my PB? Or how should I think about trying to time the clicks?

I reeeeeally like punching things and would be happy to sacrifice the extra clicks for more deeps/punchieness. I definitely felt like I was risking swings on my PB and did not see a DPS increase. Probably user error though.
Exactly. Your primary slot has its own delay timer, even if using a 2H. The secondary is indeed on a separate timer. At 48 your fist is 13/32.

You only need to quickly double click your staff to execute the off hand punch. Just an instant is all the time you need. Other than the quick double click, the staff should stay equipped. Sometimes, even at 252 dual wield skill, the punch just doesn’t happen. No big deal, just keep the staff equipped and do it again after your next swing.

Keep an eye on your combat text. When you see “You crush...” that is the timing.. right after your swing, every attack round. Feels good quadding with a 2HB. But especially at the beginning before you get the hang of it make sure you don’t forget to kick.
