Message: <blockquote data-quote="Matt Black" data-source="post: 3163025" data-attributes="member: 5477">While we're on two-weapon fighting, something I'm trying to clarify in my own head...TWF as a combat action allows you to make an extra attack with your off-hand weapon. It doesn't explicitly state that your other attack/s have to be with your primary hand. Quoting the SRD:So, you can make one off-hand attack and one regular attack OR an attack with primary hand. "Regular attack" covers everything you could normally do with an attack - attack with primary hand, grapple, trip, shield bash... And TWF aside, you could presumably use a regular attack to perform a single attack with your off-hand, with all the associated penalties. Taken literally, this suggests that, using the TWF combat action you can attack twice with your off-hand - once as your off-hand attack and once as your "regular attack".That's obviously lame, and I think the spirit of the rule is that you can attack once with your off-hand and once EITHER with your primary hand OR with any other attack option (grapple, trip, etc.) that doesn't include your off-hand. Does that sound right?But then what about iterative attacks? In lieu of the Improved TWF feat, 2nd/3rd/etc attacks should be able to be with either hand. Am I missing something?The reason I ask is that I want my 6th level fighter (with TWF and quickdraw) able to use his main melee weapon with his primary hand, and use his off-hand to use throwing weapons, both on the off-hand attack and the iterative attack.</blockquote>
