What I have observed, using a simple setup with only a blood moon unique sword and a sazabis cobalt redeemer set sword on my act5
Frenzy merc:
On the merc detailed statistics pane,...
- in "idle" it will always show the abilities of the sword in the RIGHT gear slot of the merc (the visual right side as we see it, looking at the screen).
- when the merc is fighting, the abilities shown on the detailed statistics pane will switch back and forth between the two swords (but never show both their abilities at once).
I'm not sure what info to generate from this, I just wanted to mention it. Speedwise, there didn't seem to be a difference from swapping left and right sword, but I might be wrong there...

So going back to this, considering the above answers:
1) fast+slow sword, fast in main hand = both attack fast (and slow sword in main hand - slow attack for both likewise)?
2) will anything of the two swords ever "not work"/not be applied due to the hands arrangement?
Thanks guys!!

Another interesting combo that I just tried last night was

Azurewrath + Last Wish.

If only that

Sanctuary Aura was shared with party members.. Still seems to work really well for undead and phys immunes. He can actually kill ghosts now!

When I'm not slaying demons, I'm usually out hiking mountains.

How confident are we of Maxroll's breakpoints? I know they make errors in other parts of the tool that remain unfixed. The breakpoints listed are different to those from Basin Wiki as well as Warren's calculator...

I wish so badly that Sanctuary was shared.. it’s close to superior in Chaos sanc to use

Azurewrath based on the undead there sporting 33-50 phys resistance along with the massive % boost to phys dam.

But alas it can’t be. It would make us barbs too OP :p
