Bug with two-bladed weapons?

Hello all,

Perhaps it's just a small glitch in my game, but I noticed a bug with double-bladed weapons: characters don't seem to get the -2/-2 penalties normally associated with Ambidexterity, Two-Weapon Fighting and using double-bladed weapons.

I noticed this on Daelan:
Level 13: BAB +13/+8/+3
Weapon Focus (Double Axe): +1
Strength 26: +8
Double Axe +3: +3
Double Weapon (all feats): -2

So, normally, he would have +23/+18/+13, with an extra attack at +23. In my game, however, he gets +25/+20/+15.

Anyone else noticed this?

Thanks,
Geert

I don't think that double-bladed weapons count as dual-weilding; they're only two-handed weapons. I think all you need is Exotic Weapon Proficiencies to use them without penalties.

It is a glitch. They are supposed to count as dual weapons. Its probably due to the character sheet not working properly. A lot of people have trouble with this.
