[QUOTE="Darklone, post: 1280263, member: 1372"] I suggest to have a look at the Shield Specialisation feat in the Kalamars Players Guide ... And no, I've seen many TWF builds and they never had better AC than the sword&board dude. Seems like magic shields are cheaper than the 666th TWD feat. As for "the typical TWF dude does not wear heavy armour"... ok, prolly he wasn't typical since most people imagine their TWF dudes as light armoured mobile fighters ... But: The most effective combination of fighters I saw in my campaign was a ftr/rog dwarf in the heaviest armour he could get with a double weapon. He stood in front with maxxed out AC from Expertise, Dodge and TWD. The light armoured mobile bbn/rog with a greatsword tumbled/spring attacked into flanking position as soon as his buddy closed to melee and whacked the world of pain into the opponents. Nice trick: He hit one opponent very badly, then moved on with Spring Attack to flank another one.That second dude got to enjoy a full attack action of the high hitpoints dwarf ftr/rog with extra sneak attack damage.
