Well, the issue is simple and may have been brought up before but I cannot seem to find any posts or mods to fix it. Is it possible to keybind dual wield on the pc so that 1 will equip a weapon in the right hand and 2 will equip it in the left. I can set the favorite menu up that way but once I sheath weapons it goes away. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yup, there have been threads on it, and afaik there isnt a mod to deal with it yet. I agree it is annoying and discourages dual-weild + spells for a pc user, since you have to pause the game to switch so you lose fluidity.

People are going to say just use the favorites menu, or pause the game for each switch, but that is a bad solution and they are not thinking it through. Doing a pause/switch once isnt bad... Doing it 500 times gets a little annoying.

Let the forums know if you find a solution.

Yeah, the only thing that has kept gameflow smooth without opening menus has been to use the conjured swords to dual wield. It is getting a bit old however and a fix would be fantastic to see either from Beth or a modder.
