Attack speed + weapon damage stats + hit location - opponent armor defence = damage.
I think it was Agil that told Kirito right from the start. There is no Swordskills in ALO, that means it's all basic attacks done entirely by the players. It also means that the only limit on what weapons you can use is the weapons you as a person can handle and thus dual wielding just requires knowing how to do it. This means that Kirito wont be the only one able to do it as there are some martial arts that practice dual wielding. And of course there are some actual ambidextrous people that can use both hands independently by birth (I have actually met a girl that could do that, she could write with both hands at the same).
