You did see properly that you were only hitting with one dagger, and/or that you were likely missing. When using an Increased Damage stanza, it will only apply to the weapon in your right hand (main hand). Your second dagger will usually do default damage with the occasional Critical Hit. That said, Daggers strike simultaneously, and therefore your damage number is shown as a single hit, even though it's technically the sum of both hits. If I remember correctly, your System Info will show the separate hit totals.
Though it's slower for both weapons, I actually recommend using a 1h Sword and a dagger to level. Each skill receives less XP per kill, but the damage being done is much faster than daggers. This system carried me to my 200's before I felt the need to separate the 2 weapons, and I was in a rush to master one at the time or I would've kept them together. A 2h Sword or Axe is a much faster way to a melee mastery though. Much higher DPS= faster kills.
The biggest reason to master a melee skill is the additional HP it gives you. Magic, however, gives you a lot more team flexibility, and, if you're interested in PvP'ing, healing is one of the most sought after skills at OP wars.
Ryzom is different from other MMO's out there because of it's sandbox format. The only thing that limits what you are doing is the tool or weapon in your hand. :D
