[QUOTE="(Psi)SeveredHead, post: 2849528, member: 1165"] But the monk gets flurry of blows, which is like TWF. He shouldn't be doing more than 1d6 damage per hit. But due to his low BAB (and the general wimpiness of TWF for any 1st-level character), the math gets all fuzzy. Think of what the ranger feels. Okay, they would be two points of attack bonus ahead, but that wouldn't be an issue if monks had full BAB. Assuming the fighter spent a feat, and of course the fighter can't dual wield bastard swords. With each hand. Not broken. Stifling! I would rather do 1d10+5 (with a +5 bonus to hit as well) than 2d10+zip. (You would have to make Amulets of Mighty Fists reasonably priced if you also made the damage reasonable - I don't think there's a huge cry for the amulets to keep their price.) It does if he gets two attacks. [/QUOTE]
