But you also loose a lot of power in the process, especially when using a weapon designed for two hands. Also a spear and scythe are very different in terms of hos you can use them. Sure they both have a long shaft the user hold on to, but a spear has a pointed tip while a scythe has a long blade pointing in a certain direction. If Ruby were to duel wield scythes, she would need to constantly make sure the blades don't crash into each other or her when performing certain moves. Not to mention her scythe is almost as big as she is and she uses its weight to her advantage (using it as an anchor, flinging herself around, ect). If she were to use two, they weight would have to be reduced for her to control them and as a result, she would end up like Weiss (fast attacks, but little damage).
