Type	Passive
Max level	5
Requires	Right-Hand Mastery Lv 2

Left-Hand Mastery is a passive skill of the Assassin class that restores the damage lost by the off-hand weapon when dual wielding.

Overview

Assassins are the only class able to equip a weapon in each hand, but the left-hand weapon deals reduced damage by default. Left-Hand Mastery recovers that lost damage, and together with Right-Hand Mastery it makes dual wielding a viable offensive style.

Mechanics

While dual wielding, the left-hand weapon's damage is scaled by the skill level. The off-hand weapon deals 50 + 10 × SkillLv percent of its normal damage, so each level recovers another 10% of the penalty. At Level 5 the left-hand weapon reaches its full 100% damage.

This bonus applies only to the off-hand weapon and only while a weapon is equipped in each hand.
