Is a melee touch attack considered a normal attack? For instance, if someone were using rods of withering:
A rod of withering acts as a +1 light mace that deals no hit point damage. Instead, the wielder deals 1d4 points of Strength damage and 1d4 points of Constitution damage to any creature she touches with the rod (by making a melee touch attack). If she scores a critical hit, the damage from that hit is permanent ability drain. In either case, the defender negates the effect with a DC 17 Fortitude save.
Would you be able to dual wield these and attack with it multiple times? Or wield it offhand and strike with another weapon first and this one?
