Okay, for some reason i had the idea that offhand only triggered when main hand went off.

Can you say anything more about this main hand bonus?
Level 28: 1
Level 31: 2
Level 34: 3
Level 37: 4
Level 40: 5
Level 43: 6
Level 46: 7
Level 49: 8
Level 52: 9
Level 55: 10
Level 58: 11

This is your main hand damage bonus for 1h weapons, based on your level. Before level 28, you can just use the best ratio weapons in both hands. As you level up past 28, the damage bonus plays a bigger role in your DPS, so lower delay weapons start to become more desireable in your main hand.

Lets take two weapons with equal ratios, but different delays. We have a 10 damage/20 delay weapon, and a 20 damage/40 delay weapon. Without haste, and with the 11 damage mainhand bonus:

1. The 10 damage weapon would do ((10 weapon damage * (10 dice roll / 10 )) + 11 bonus damage) * (60 seconds / 2 seconds per swing) = 630 damage per minute with 0 misses, and rolling an average of 10 on your d20 roll.

2. The 20 damage weapon would do ((20 weapon damage * (10 dice roll / 10)) + 11 bonus damage) * (60 seconds / 4 seconds per swing) = 465 damage per minute with 0 misses, rolling an average of 10 on your d20 roll.

Even though the ratios are the same, the faster weapon does more damage.

Two handed weapons have higher damage bonuses than 1h weapons, based on the delay of the weapon. This table will show you what damage bonus you will get for 2h weapons based on your level and the weapon's delay:
