[QUOTE="Infiniti2000, post: 3214901, member: 31734"] I'm not sure I understand. Are you saying that if I have a longsword and dagger in my hands, that if I want to be able to attack with the dagger on an AoO, I have to have both wielded while I attack and thus take TWF penalties while I attack even if I don't/can't make the extra attack? If that's what you're saying, I don't agree. I think it's the actual fact of taking that extra attack that causes you to incur the TWF penalties. I don't agree, nor do I think anyone else agrees. The others will at least allow you to wield the off-hand weapon expo facto of the attack action (causing TWF penalties on [I]any[/I] AoO). This is the default case. Everyone agrees. Can't you use your primary weapon for the AoO? This is very similar to the next one... I don't agree that TWF should apply. The primary hand will have no penalties while the off-hand gets off-hand penalties. There is no extra attack and you are not using TWF, thus no TWF penalties. Sure. But, this one is the same as the previous, if you 'switched' weapons into your off-hand. [/QUOTE]
