    No apology necessary - I'll be bugging the damage not updating on the tooltip as I believe it should be :D.

    I'm glad you took time to help out by testing something to ensure I'm getting the correct information out to everyone.

    Regarding Offhand Attack: I have not so far played with any builds with weapons other than sword/dagger. My character is of moderate level (50ish) with good (+8) crafted weapons and Dex/Str in the 40s. I find Offhand Attack to be completely anemic and wonder if I'm doing something wrong. My sword Thrust will take an inferior enemy to half health, whereas it takes 4-5 Offhand Attack blows to do the rest, which strikes me as pitiful. The attack costs no focus but at that weak damage output, I'm hard pressed to see why ever use it except when out of focus. Are others finding offhand attacks to be sort of useless? (Is the only real benefit here to stack more poison with more attacks - on enemies that are susceptible to poison that is?)
