Leveling secondary weapons without using it, possible?

Hey, so i am 36 now and for the entire time i have been using dual wield for primary and secondary set, but now i kind of want to make my secondary set of abilities to be destruction staff. so i am wondering, if i begin questing and killing things using only my primary set while the staff is equipped in my secondary, would the staff still level even if i dont use it, but only wield it?

its just really weak at the moment.

    Basically put a skill from the other weapon in your 6 slots.

    I believe so. This is what I did with my restoration staff.

    Also, make sure you wield it before turning in quests! If you do that you will get LOTS of xp for what you are wielding.

    also, does it matter what level the quests are? because theres a whole region i skipped and they are like level 5-8 quests. what if i go back and do it with the staff...

    Yes and no, low level XP but your weapon is low level. So you should able to one-shot everything, finish the quests quickly and level that weapon up.

    I would put as many Destruction Staff skills as possible in your bar as the more you have slotted the more XP the weapon and skills get.
