[QUOTE="mischa84, post: 4665366, member: 81141"] I agree about that "Part of a move action" PHB 182, sorry about that. But I'm still not talkin about ATTACKS you can do as much free ACTIONS as you want between other ACTIONS not in the midst of an ACTION. Thanks for Doctor Proctor having the same point. But I read through the PHB again to find out that you always can attack with your main hand or off hand!!! Like Black Knight Irios, thanks. PHB 270. But PHB 217 tells us: [I][B]Off-Hand: An off-hand weapon is light enough that you can hold it and attack effectively with it while holding a weapon in your main hand. You can’t attack with both weapons in the same turn, unless you have a power that lets you do so, but you can attack with either weapon.[/B][/I] If we don't ignore it it also means you can also use only one of your two weapons when spending an action point to use two powers. Let us come to the point were you get rid of your used weapon to use another: Even with quickdrawing you weapon the used weaponslot only unequips with a free action which as far as I understand can only be taken between other actions and not while one is still in process. Until now I didn't find any clarification on this issue but it will until then be in responsability of the concerned DM to allow or deny actions in process of other actions. But remember that this will allow Attack while Moving, like going 3 squares forward make a ranged attack and go back to the starting position and that is totally not what I want in my game. [/QUOTE]
