[QUOTE="Mr. Spade, post: 7829702, member: 7016481"] Coroc, I do agree that the style irl is better suited to 2 light weapons or a light/medium. I have addressed the stances, you're either using your secondary weapon to augment your offense or defense, this is not a choice you get to make whenever, but only at the beginning of your attack action. I have trained in two weapon fighting, I have found that as your awareness and mobility improves an offhand weapon's ability to deflect blows can become comparable or better than a shield, but requires a focus that limits your attack options. Again this is a relatively simple change that if implemented would not require a great deal of adjustments. If we are discussing real life, how many people do you know that could swing a maul, with any real effect, 4-8 (action surge) times in 6 seconds? So with that in mind if Timmy's female halfling barbarian wants to dual wield her battle axe/warhammer combo than let the little lady rage on, you know within reason. Lol [/QUOTE]
