Left hand

Your Guild Wars character's left hand is the hand that he/she holds a Focus Item or Shield in. It is also referred to as a variant of "off hand."

If your character is using a Two-Handed weapon, such as a Hammer, Staff, Bow or Daggers you lose the benefit that item would otherwise bestow, although these weapons tend to be have near equal benefits with having a one-handed weapon and off-hand item.
