Does anybody know for certain how Red Upgrade stones affects damage when dual wielding?

For example, R-Type upgrades give +18% critical damage to 1H Swords at level 3.

Would Dual Wield average bonuses?
Lv0 + Lv3 = 0 + 18 / 2 = +9%
Lv3 + Lv3 = 18 + 18 / 2 = +18%

...or would it add the bonuses?
Lv0 + Lv3 = 0 + 18 = +18%
Lv3 + Lv3 = 18 + 18 = +36%

I know it's still early, but actual in-game experience or screenshots would be preferred.

Average.

Is the bonus max damage from Sword Mastery averaged as well, when dual wielding? or does each sword essentially get +20 max?

Well I only have +1 right now :s lol but from what I gather when you smash/mill it's AVERAGED. When you're single hitting each sword depends on it's own %. I can further explain if needed.

Sword mastery adds +20 max to each sword when single hitting. +20 when smashing/windmilling (by that, I mean +20 added to your max and then multipled by 500% or w.e)

Thanks for the clarification, that's what I figured.

Alright, I had heard otherwise but I assumed it was averaged anyways.

S-Type over Horn it is!
