What is the expected behaviour/value?
Ailment damage should be calculated separately per hand then combined: Mark_GGG
What is the actual behaviour/value?
Melee skills that can hit simultaneously with both hands while dual wielding incorrectly show ailment damage only being contributed from one hand. Changing a weapon that inflicts bleed to a weapon that cannot inflict bleed does not affect the bleed DPS.
How to reproduce the issue
Swap "Test 1" weapon to "Test 2" weapon.

Research direction
Use the linked Pastebin build and reproduce the issue by swapping the “Test 1” and “Test 2” weapons. Trace the ailment-damage calculation for melee skills that can hit with both hands, then verify that each hand contributes separately and that the displayed bleed DPS changes when one weapon cannot inflict bleed.
