Building an efficient Dual Wielder

[mellored]

Hunter's Mark/Hex doesn't work too well with dual wielding, due to the fact that it competes with your bonus action.
Sure, if you're facing a big bad, and you can sneak up and cast it before battle begins, then it can add some good damage. But overall things tend to die in a round and then you need to reapply it.

Crusader's mantle on the other hand, is much more likely to be useful, as it follows you. Another feather for paladins.

Hi,

In a similar vein, Hex works better for a high-level Warlock using EB than for a high-level Bladelock or similar, since the latter's action involves fewer attack rolls (and opportunities to roll the Hex d6.)

Anyway,
