Message: <blockquote data-quote="Felon" data-source="post: 3355596" data-attributes="member: 8158">How so? I have kept my posts relevant to stating straightforward logic and simple facts, whereas you are doing what so many internet posters try to do, which is skate by on attitude and snarkyness. Again, I will get knee-deep into specifics and then wait to see if the ante will be met. The tempest provides a nice PrC for the likes of rogues and scouts that dip into fighter for a level or two, as they lend themselves to "stick-and-move" tactics that make use of spring-attacking and tumbling away. But that diehard 2WFer isn't a rogue or scout. He's about unleashing full-round attacks, taking no more than a 5-foot step if at all possible, which means he's got every reason to be wearing heavy armor (or medium if he can get mithral plate) and thus little use for Spring Attack or Tumble. He does not need two-weapon versatility either, as he's using a double-weapon, or two bastard swords or waraxes (or dealt with it some other way). Ambidexterity is definitely appealing, and would be a must-have if compacted into a smaller level sink, but four levels to eliminate a -2 penalty rubs away the luster.This comes across as "here are a bunch of vague generalizations. If you're tempted to point out the holes in these generalizations, please don't because it's not relevant". If you don't want your assertions rebutted, then don't make them. If you don't think challenging the accuracy of your assertions is relevant, then the assertions weren't relevant in the first place. Again, simple, manifest logic.</blockquote>
