The off-hand slot scam is a scam that occurs at the Duel Arena and targets players with 2-handed weapons. In this scam, usually the player will be staking the scammer. The scammer will then turn the off-hand slot off. If the player is unaware that their 2-handed weapon will be removed due to this, they will proceed into the duel without a weapon. They will most likely lose unless they have a one-handed weapon with them, or they could be a pure and the scammer's combat level may not be much higher. There is also a variant in free-to-play involving ranged-only duels, where very few one-handed ranged weapons exist other than javelins.
