As far as the offhand, ratio is king.
This is the only thing I've seen you say that I think may be inaccurate. Once again, things may work different here, but on live that wasn't true. The reason for this is that your offhand's swings aren't determined by the speed of the weapon in that hand. The way DW works in EQ is that every time your main hand swings the game makes a check on your DW skill. If it passes then your offhand swings. This is why Monks with a moss covered twig and a high damage/high delay offhand was one of the most retardedly OP things in the game. This is also why that weapon was only in the game for an extremely short time compared to things like the Mana Stone.
