Hmm.. I played dual wield on my assassin class character. What I'd do is hit something with my bow (enchanted with fire frost almost always and with a poison to have a weakness to frost). From there I'd rush in and with one fire and one frost weapon beat the crap out of them. The trick with Duel-Wielding I found was that you should always enchant with two separate enchants, preferable with at least one frost or shock as it drains stamina/magic respectively. Other then that, use stealth to your advantage. It's hard to tank and duel-wield at the same time so you have to make your hits quick and fast and then get out.
Also, make use of followers with a good set of armor. That way your enemies focus on him while you circle back and slash at their back.

Best setup for followers I've found so far is Max out Conjuration and get the spell Dead Thrall, revive a two necromancers (requires the perk that allows two followers) as well as get a follower that is a mage. (I haven't tried adding a dog into this mix a well, but it might work also). From there, when ever you get into combat, your two necromancers (or summoners if you're lucky, I haven't gotten any) will raise two undead. So that is now 2 undead, 2 necromancers you and your follower... against what ever your facing.
Nothing ever lasts long against me in this setup
