I'd also give a decent circumstance bonus to the target if they were subject to the same dirty trick repeatedly to discourage using this sort of thing uncreatively.  Also, this is subject to the 'must have a free hand' issue, so the player is forgoing a shield, a second weapon, the use of a light source or whatever he could be doing with that second hand. And, further, if the player does this with the off-hand, then it's not only an off-hand attack and subject to all the penalties thereof, but it's now two-handed fighting penalties on the primary weapon.In short, it might be something a player does creatively and with a particular purpose, but I wouldn't expect it to become the thing to do all the time despite me saying "Yes." to the request.</blockquote>
