So Normaly only main hand, but by using the bonus action you can hit with your off hand aswel.   This seems to be for everyone. But after looking into the barbarian, he gets this on the 3. level: F r e n z y Starting when you choose this path at 3rd level, you can go into a frenzy when you rage. If you do so, for the duration o f your rage you can make a single melee weapon attack as a bonus action on each o f your turns after this one. When your rage ends, you suffer one level o f exhaustion (as described in appendix A).     So I understand the above is great if you are wielding a two handed weapon. But if you are dual wielding, does this give you anything at all since you already can use the bonus action for the off hand? Or would someone rule that you get 2 attacks with the off hand?

Not sure it'd be worth a level of exhaustion just to get an attack with a one-handed weapon, but a barbarian's gotta do what a barbarian's gotta do.
