    Since we have no special dual wield skills, but do have talents and runes which proc on auto-attacks, the normal dual-wield rule applies:

    Slow weapon in main hand
    Fast weapon in off-hand

    Just in case; You want a slow weapon in main hand due to those weapons having higher damage than their faster counterparts. If you find a faster weapon which has higher damage / dps than your main hand, but isn't as fast as your current off-hand, just use it as main hander.

    To simplify, Highest average damage in the MH (bottom end+top end/2) and highest DPS in the OH.
