[QUOTE="Edena_of_Neith, post: 2765191, member: 2020"] (embarrassed look) What does funky (or funkier) mean? Someone mentioned it above. I'll go to the Rules Forum is that is what everyone wants. Back in 2nd edition and 1st edition, the poor mage only got 1 new spell free at each level. Anything else had to be bought or swapped with the players (and in 1st edition, it was made clear that you had to make it an unholy nightmare for wizards to try to buy spells from NPCs.) What you said confirmed a question: The person gets a BAB with his off-hand (for that one attack allowed with the off-hand) equal to his best BAB with his good hand. Of course, there is the - 6 / - 10 penalty ... no big thing ... :) Are you SURE that Dexterity bonuses in no way affect the penalties for two-weapon fighting (or otherwise employing the off-hand) ? In 1st and 2nd edition, they did. Ambidexterity? There go the drow again :D I will look at the Rogue's Gallery. But first I have to know things well enough that I'm not reading gibberish, and I'm not to that point yet. (I see the numbers, but what the numbers mean are another matter.) I will hold off on prestige classes. I'm just starting on CLASSES right now. :) And thanks for the compliment. Cheers, Terwox! :) Yours Truly Edena_of_Neith [/QUOTE]
