I always thought that you need to have the low delay in the off-hand so you will swing more with it? am i wrong?

While it is true that you will swing more often with a lower delay weapon in your offhand the same is true for your primary slot. Both slots will try to swing as often as the delay+haste will allow them(of course your offhand will not swing with probability 1 like your primary). The difference is that your primary weapon receives a damage bonus, which makes swinging more often with your primary weapon a good thing, but for your offhand all that matters is ratio.

Love, how this gets more confusing with every post [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

The skill description on p99-wiki reads: "Each weapon has its speeds calculated individually. " Sounds to me, as if it doesn't matter at all. Wrong?

everything is crystal clear to me....

what to put where depends on what you have to choose from.
If you dual wielding Lammis - not much choice here [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Low Delay mainhand = more swings offhand because your dual wield check goes off more often.

off hand is NOT connected to main hand in anyway... after 11 years you would think people would memorize this fact...

This is correct, until you factor in the main hand damage bonus. You want that bonus applied as much as possible during a fight, so lower delay = more hits during a given period of time = higher additional DPS from damage bonus

That is why people say lowest delay belongs in main hand. Now, when you figure in haste, there are diminishing returns the lower your delay is.

TL;DR - parse it.
