==Skill Design==
Double Strike is passive, giving the Barbarian a chance to swing both weapons at once. This means that when the chance activates (procs[[proc]]s), you swing one of your weapons and then swing your other weapon without impairing or resetting the swing timer on the other weapon.
If we understand the term "swing" correctly, then it means this extra attack works like the normal attack, and has a chance to miss, to be blocked, to be parried etc. It also has chance to use effects on the weapon (Ice for example), if such exist and to deal damage somewhere between the minimum and the maximum as usual.
==Development==
Double Strike was first seen in the [[BlizzCon 2008]] demo. The earlier version had much lower [[proc ]] rate to get a double swing than the version seen at [[BlizzCon 2009]].
