You are skilled at two-weapon fighting. Your chance to attack with an offhand weapon is increased.

This skill can be learned through water ritual with Eskhind.

For purposes of determining off-hand attack chance, all that matters is the highest skill you have in this tree. For example, having both Offhand Strikes and Ambidexterity has no effect beyond what just having Ambidexterity would do.[1] This can happen if you obtain a skill through the water ritual.
