In this instance I opted to make no assumption about whether or not the rule in question was being enforced and leave it up to the poster to decide if it was a relevant factor for them or not.Different people evaluate +1 AC vs. +1 to hit differently. Since they asked for the best feat for damage, I assumed they would prioritize offense over defense. If you disagree that’s fine, but I was answering the question they asked.Right, being able to draw both weapons in one turn is an offensive advantage in favor of Dual Wielder, if the DM is enforcing that restriction. Definitely something worth considering, if it’s a relevant factor at your table.Ultimately though, this is all moot, as it seems the poster’s character doesn’t have two Light weapons to dual-wield with, so Dual Wielder would be a much greater damage increase than +2 strength. Unless they are operating under a house rule of some sort, in which case they’re already receiving the primary benefit of the Feat and would probably be better off increasing Strength.</blockquote>
