[QUOTE="Jefe Bergenstein, post: 6920932, member: 31506"] Not trying to be completely snarky, but why did you bring up this character who gets buffs compared to another guy who has terrible luck as if it was relevant when discussing implementing mechanics? Poor tactics, DM favoritism, bad player luck - these really arent things to primarily consider whether a house rule is balanced. To the OP, I've moved the extra offhand attack to the "Attack" action for those who take either the feat OR the fighting style, and its been a much needed boost for dual wielding. It's helped boost melee rangers and rogues compared to their ranged counterparts. Action surge fighters get their second offhand attack like they should. Additionally I'd probably give a fighter a 2nd offhand attack when they reach 17th level or whenever you get your 4th attack. Beyond that, its nothing that cant be fixed by throwing an extra +1 or whatever on the dual wielder's weapons. [/QUOTE]
