It does give you more damage like the talent says. If the OH is slow it does even more. I want to DW 2 2.6 weapons because of the patch instead of a slow one now.

Dual wielding two slow weapons is generally the way to go now if your lvling or want to be a decent dps as a warrior. The WW change is just too great to ignore.

Dual Wield incurs penalties for its use: decreased damage on the offhand and increased chance to miss with either hand.
50% less damage on offhand
19% increased miss chance (all attacks)
This leads to a total of 24% chance to miss special attacks so you need to gain
+Hit. Expertise
will help as well, however my knowledge of 2.3 is somewhat limited at the moment. It doesn't replace
+Hit
, either way.
DW spec relieves 25% of the penalty so your weapon naturally does more damage than before when in the offhand. It doesn't change regardless of weapon speed.
You can think of it like this: Your offhand now does 75% of damage instead of 50%.
