Secondary weapon on my Warrior is not being maintained in fight and is switching back to main weapon

I am having some issues with the weapons when switching between them on my Warrior Every time I am switching to secondary and start hitting enemies it automatically switches back to the main weapon. I was wondering if there is something I might be missing or if this might be a bug.

I am alternating between greathammer and club, then changing to one handed hammer and same thing. Is there a skill or setting I am missing, or this might be a bug?

Each weapon has skill/attack which you place on your skill panel and use. For example Stuff has "Fireball" attack and when you click left mouse button character launch fireball from staff. Another stuff have some "Shock" skill which you placed on right mouse button and every time you press right mouse button character switch to this new staff to be able to launch skill which related to your pressed button (skill slot). So, I guess you are trying to make both of your weapons use their Attack skill on left mouse button which isn't possible, because only one skill could be set to one button. You can attach attack skill of first weapon to left mouse button and attack of second weapon to CTRL+LEft Mouse button. With those your character would switch to first weapon when you press LMB and to second weapon when you press CTRL+LMB.

Ty for your insight, but I don't think you understand my issue too well.

I have Greathammer two handed weapon on the first weapons tab, and one handed hammer and shwied on the second weapons tab.

I can use all the weapons just right with the great hammer with all the shortcuts like CTRL+something but if I switch weapons tab with X I expect that those weapons on the second tab to remain Equipped, well thats how it supposed to work. This CTRL+left for one weapon and CTRL+right for another weapon doesn't even make any sense. This might be the way you play, I cannot judge, but switching weapons tab does not work as it supposed to, like any other game that gives you 2 weapons tab, or any other game that lets you change weapons mid fight. If I switch weapons between tabs and put greathammer on second tab and onehanded hammer plus shield on the first tab they act exactly the same when I press X to switch weapons , the weapons revert back to first tab on first left click (attack) press.

So if I press X to change weapons tab, I expect that that tab remains active, not switch to first tab on first left click(attack) action ... I still think this is a bug not a "feature". I'd like an admin give me an opinion on this.

First path of exile iteration when u switched to second weapons tab, it remained on that tab, it didn't revert back to first. So I don't see the reason not being the same here.

In the meantime I found an additional issue where I marked the option to always highlight everything, and out of the blue, it unmarks itself on the map I am on and I have to put it back on. this has to be a bug.
