Well, two weapon fighting is amazingly easy to do in 5e but doing so means choosing that extra attack above a bunch of other options. Generally, attacking with two light weapons has about-ish slightly higher damage output than smacking with one heavy weapon, and because it’s between two attacks you have better odds of hitting at least once.
What happens when a character wields two weapons?
