weapons giving additional attack and 2WF

Post by silverdragon72 »

Using short "sword of flurry +3" or "stunning star of speed" on your 2nd hand (with 2WF) - does this give the bonus attack(s) on your main hand ?

Hmm, I am not quite sure, but I believe it gives just an extra attack per round. Lets say you reach the level(depending on character) where you get a second Base Attack Bonus, in the character info screen it would say # of Attacks: 2+1, the 2 being the first and second base attacks, and the +1 from the weapon. I do believe it's 'an overall' attack.

...anyone knows ?


if you get the additional attacks on your main hand this would be a quite good argument for 2WF !!!

yes, if you have an "extra attack" weapon in your off-hand, the extra attack is made by the main hand. same goes for any item that add extra attacks & haste.

...why are so many people complaining about "how useless is 2WF in 3.x" ?! (in the TOEE and IWD2 forums)

should be one of the best feats you can get (as long as the game contains some ... of speed weapons !

...or ability-enhancing weapons (especially for sorcerers and wizards)
