You can only tell if a pet is actually duel wielding if you physically see him holding a weapon in each hand. You could hand him weapons all day if u wanted but you will only see the first weapon uv given him equipped.

Not true, you will always see the weapons (besides chanter)

You need to give 1 blunt and 1 slash (or pierce) and look at the combat messages.

They can hold the weapon but you will never see a combat message from the second weapon type.

It may depend on the weapons your giving him. I know that for my mage pet using lvl 24 spells, he cannot equip two 1handed spears at the same time, but can do so for daggers, 1 handed swords etc.

I havn't checked the battle logs, but I do see him swing with both arms. IDK if thats just graphics though.

The animation is in response to what they are holding but is not representative of what's actually happening. Don't forget how old the engine of this game is. They didn't bother to make little changes like this to the game.

I'd that to test if they really are dual-wielding, give them two different types, i.e. like a sword and a dagger, and see if the log says they are both slashing and piercing.
