[QUOTE="Chaosmancer, post: 7965556, member: 6801228"] Players don't often fight Bear Totems though. Most monsters from levels 3 to 9 don't have resistance to normal damage, so a shortsword and a dagger accomplish the same effect. Take a level of fighter and you get the same two-weapon fighting benefit. But, the real truth I would find, is that a d6 weapon is just not going to stay the rogues main attack. There are too many options for doing far better damage. You can kind of add a Bless by 9th level, which makes you a little more accurate, but you are probably using another weapon anyways so it won't matter until you start missing. And then it downgrades so you get three uses of increased accuracy total. And the stun is just really crappy, if it even comes up. the other 3rd level abilities are decent for a rogue. More skill monkeying, and the 1 mile telepathy is great, but I see those blades as getting dropped and never used quite quickly for other options. [/QUOTE]
