Not sure this is a bug and definitely not sure how to reproduce it, but reporting since there have been some discussion and changes concerning weapons and slots.

According to the relay browser, at the instant this update was requested the character had a Knob Goblin Scimitar in the main hand and the Hammer of Smiting in the off hand.

That's a strange one. I can't reproduce it at high level with the best mainhand stat booster in my offhand, then maximising the stat, on an item I have only one of. Maximizer shouldn't be suggesting using two of something when you only have one. I knows you haven't got two, if you had it'd just say equip, not remove and equip. Did you have no other item that'd give +mainstat? Maybe it's trying to move your best weapon to mainhand, and not finding anything better than nothing, and mistakenly treating that as leave the currently equipped weapon? That'd be a bug. Can you run the debug version and see what it is being considered for offhand?

I'm having trouble reproducing but I have to ask what you mean by "debug version"? If I turn the Debug Log, maximize, and then Off I see nothing from the maximizer. "dump mainstat" is an invalid option in the Maximizer. "mainstat dump" once gave me some gCLI output that looked like slots and choices but every time I have tried since (including after a complete logout) I get nothing. Perhaps dump is not working as expected?

PS - I just tried "mainstat dump 2" which I infer from the help and did not work and "mainstat dump2" which at least was not an error.

I'm probably missing something obvious but...

You want something like maximize? mainstat 2 dump.

Always confusing me too, the 2 is a weighting for the dump keyword, the same way as you can weight other things by putting a number in front of them eg 2 Meat, Item to weight Meat twice as much as Item.

The operator error was I was trying to do everything in the GUI. Entering "maximize? mainstat 2 dump" in the gCLI gave me much more interesting results. If/when I can reproduce it I will post. Thanks.

I tried mainstat in the GUI with the scimitar in the main hand and the Hammer off hand. Saw remove and equip hammer followed by keep hammer (as in the screen shot) and then ran the command with results shown above. Thanks.

PS does "[Hammer of Smiting, Knob Goblin scimitar]" suggests that maximizer thinks the hammer is main and scimitar is offhand? If so then every other way I have to display them switches where they are.

No, these are the items going through to evaluator, and in slot 7 means the current melee offhand and the best other melee offhand, and in slot 13 means the current 1 handed melee weapon and the best other 1 handed melee weapon.
