*As with all Dual melee weapons, the Dual Heat Swords consumes Stamina per individual swing of their left and right weapons. Since dual weapons can swing twice in rapid succession, one can drain stamina at an alarming rate faster than even stamina-heavy weapons like the [[Fragor]]. Consider using the [[Quick Rest]] mod when wielding this weapon to quickly recover Stamina, or alternatively use the [[Second Wind]] mod to instantly regain Stamina on channeling kills. Using [[Stance#Melee Combos|Melee Combos]] that hit multiple times per attack like [[Swirling Tiger]]'s '''Winding Claws''' can also offset the heavy stamina cost.
