Actually going from the damage numbers and formula, these attacks don't use the off-hand:
Force Charge
Smash
Force Scream
Force Choke
Saber Throw
Rupture
Force Crush
Deadly Saber
Ataru Form
Cloak of Pain
Wounding Throw

Assault and Obliterate also don't, but that's probably a bug since they specifically state that they do in the tooltips.
Pommel Strike and Savage Kick I can't say either way.

...and at the risk of being a big know-it-all, Vicious Throw's stats are:
AmountModifierPercent 0.900
StandardHealthPercentMin/Max 0.265
Coefficient 2.850
It's one of the highest damage attack the Marauder has.

Well Force Charge is a situational ability
Force Smash, Force Scream and other force abilities have no impact/benefit from weapon damage and wounding throw isnt really an actual melee attack its merely a means to apply a healing debuff (Kinda like Widow Venom).

About Vicious Throw i dont know what to say, i guess it is counted as "Execute" version of Saber Throw in BioWare's eyes. Certainly requires more testing .

Quote:Basic attack accuracy is 90% for Main-Hand, 57% for Off-Hand
Special attack accuracy is 100% for Main-Hand, 67% for Off-Hand

Can't say for sure which attacks count as basic, but it may just be Assault. Certainly ALL Force attacks are regarded as Special attacks. So the main use of accuracy may be to overcome your targets parry chance.

From what i have seen all melee attacks (attacks that use weapon damage in their formula etc) are counted as basic and they are shown in white numbers while force/tech attacks are counted as special hence the yellow/orange numbers. In numerious videos i have seen "white" melee attacks miss but never seen special attack miss . Ofc if i am wrong correct me on this.
