Default Dual Wield, or drum in 2nd slot?

so i have been noticing a lot recently, while comparing gear on EQ2Players, that many people are equipping their drum in the secondary slot and equipping a bad ass bow in their ranged slot.

How does that compare to dual wielding on the parse?

i just can't imagine that being more effective than dual wielding, or am i missing something?

what do the experts think?

I'd hazard a guess that the random EQ2Players database is grabbing info as people are macroing in a bow and drum to secondary for ranged stuff?

it doesnt randomly grab data... it grabs data after the character has been logged off. so any active (logged on players) will not update. people are just equipping thier drums to make thier stats look good for rankings is what i assume
