Your chance to strike with an off-hand weapon increases to 35%.

Offhand Strikes increases the chance that a creature will strike with an offhand weapon when attacking in melee to 35%.

This skill does not apply to offhand slots that are considered mutated limbs or robotic arms. For more details, see: Offhand.

However, since buying Dual Wield grants both it and Flurry, doing so may confer additional benefit, while water ritualing for Offhand Strikes alone (on the off chance that that's possible) confers none.
