As far as I'm aware, only the Barb and Monk can dual-wield (plus DH with hand xbows). Wizard has off-hand items that she can equip along with a 1h weapon, maybe that's what you saw?
ya I agree with kick, I think what you saw was a sword and the staff was actually an offhand stick. I think wizards prefer having a wand and off hand "orb" since those are its class specific items, but thats the beauty with diablo 3, chose what you want :P. (except dual wielding wizard)
im not sure about dual weild but im sure that wizards can use 2h weapons, ive seen videos of it, because people with beta keys have been asked the question and they showed us what the wiz could do. theres a posablity they could dual weild im not sure. Remeber people that blizz isnt just making the wizard pewpew caster blizz is also making the wizard a Slash n hack Melee wizard.. the video i watched with the 2h mace on the wiz was amazing the amount of dps he was putting out was insane for the beta neways so if i see a video showing dual weilding ill let you know.
I know this has prob been answered already, but since there seem to be minimal restrictions to weapons in D3, can a wizard dual wield?
I remember seeing somewhere a wizard was holding a sword and staff.
The word is DUAL, it's called dual wield.

My PvP build would be different from these 13.
