On 360 you would press the X button, so I'm assuming Square on PS3. Not sure about PC but I'm sure the manual could help.

If you want to walk bare handed without any spells or weapons I think you can just unequip them, I havent actually tried yet, but if you cant unequip the spells then for example dual wield swords and then unequip those and you should be able to walk without anything in your hands

How do you equip dual spells anyways? It seems to only let me equip spells to my left hand for some reason (I'm on PC).

I'm watching my brother play right now and he can't figure it out either LOl.

The UI is not straight forward enough for PC. Menu's within menus.. It should all be on one screen.

If anyone knows how to dual spell, please tell. He's even got the dual casting perk and he still can't figure it out.

That doesn't seem to work... it just cycles between L and not being equipped. ???

I got it to work by unequipping the sword and then going to the spells, but even left and right clicking was a little confusing as it kept equipping it to one side. Finally worked after a few seconds of clicking around though.

Hmm... Do you have a sword equipped? I think if it is equipped it auto-toggle to the Left. If you do not have DW for your school, I do not think you can do the same on both.

On the PC:
Left click a spell and it's active in your left hand.
Right click a spell and it's active in your right hand.

If that doesn't work for you, then it sounds like you're dealing with a bug.

That works for dual-wielding weapons as well. Only thing it doesn't matter on is two-handed items (since they use both hands), and shields (always in the left hand) I guess they decided not to give people the option of being left-handed, though it seems the combat system itself could relatively easily support it.

Oh wow. This is a bug for sure. Now it wont even let me unequip fire from my right hand (no idea how I even managed to get it to stick to that.) Is there some way to unequip the spell? left click does nothing to remove it from the right hand.
