[QUOTE="Infiniti2000, post: 2278101, member: 31734"] Not true because what he said does not jive with your analysis. While I applaud your analysis, it failed to address my point that most such analyses contain errors. Many times they are simply errors of ommission due to assumptions. In this case, the average damage is incorrect because the assumption of the weapons used is two weapons at d6 each instead of some other choice. It also assumes a certain AC where the TWF penalty is noticeable. There are other assumptions as well. I only wanted to point out that ignoring all those assumptions leads to errors in the analysis, and quite frankly I think yours proves my point. This is only because of your specific example. In any case, let's say I agree with it. Our assumption is that we get one attack, be it an AoO or a charge or whatever. Who has more options for the single attack, the TWF or the THF? Keep in mind that one of the OP's guiding decisions is "I'm all for options." :) [/QUOTE]
