D&D (2024) Two Weapon Fighting and Nick article

I'm not sure that is true. It depends on the fighter.

All the Fighters I play as a player have spells (usually a bunch of racial and feat spells in addition to Eldritch Knight spells). I would not say they are any faster than the Wizards I play.

Well no, if you turn your Fighter into a Wizard I don't imagine much time difference.

That would not be very fun I don't think

Congratulations, you’ve deciphered the code

If l attack using a short sword as a Rogue i can then attack again using a scimitar in the same attack action and add my modifier plus my sneak attack on that second attack since i have vex on short sword and Nick on the scimitar. That is how i understand the rules in the new Players Handbook.

Another thing not mentioned in the article is the Thrown property; you can draw a Thrown weapon as part of a ranged attack, wether using the Atttack Action or a Bonus Action, meaning you can throw daggers while holding a shield for example, and benefit from the Light property and the Dual Wielder feat.

While I won't allow swapping melee weapons to be able to dual wield, my decision about thrown weapons is not done. In that case, throwing away the weapon to make room for a weapon that explicitely allows to be drawn mid attack action seems ok to me and actually quite cool.
