[QUOTE="TwoSix, post: 7620736, member: 205"] Okay, trying an alternate approach. This rework of Dual Wielder enables a lot of builds that didn't previously work, by tying together Dual Wielder with GWM and SS. It also enables round by round switching between shield and weapons as needed, so it also synergizes with Shield Master if desired. [B]Dual Wielder[/B] You are a savant of weaponry. You are able to use any combination of weapons in unconventional yet effective ways; you gain the following benefits: -You can use two-weapon fighting even when the one-handed melee weapons you are wielding aren't light. -Any versatile weapon you wield is also considered a heavy weapon. If you are Small, you do not suffer disadvantage when wielding a versatile heavy weapon. -Any thrown weapon you wield is considered both a melee weapon and a ranged weapon. -You can draw or stow two one-handed weapons when you would normally be able to draw or stow only one. You may treat a shield as a weapon for purposes of drawing or stowing. -When you make an attack with a light weapon, you may take a -3 penalty to the attack roll you make to gain a +5 bonus to damage.
