(..i also wanted to see if the numbers i came up before were real)the 6th lvl ranger with two daggers (3 attacks/round), assuming that an 11 on a d20 is a hit 50%, in 50 rounds gets:at least two hits in a round: 26/50 ---> 52%all three hits OR no hit in a round: 5/50 ---> 10% That means that he gets to hit at least once in a round 90% of the time, and that he makes all three hits 10% of the time.(chances are the same because its a 50-50 case)ok... so the numbers i gave in my previous post are ok. Now whats is interesting is this:He got at least one speed weapon attack in 13 out of the 50 rounds. 13/50 ---> 26%Now that means that the ranger gets 26% for at least an extra attack each round!Without playing by speed weapon rules, that like giving the ranger a 1d4 each round, and if he scores a 1 he gets at least one extra attack!....And now i'm thinking again...is this something i wanna give to light weapons...? with full benefits during this extra attack..?Personally i say no.. not with full benefits anyway...All the above calculations stand for a 6th lvl TW fighter... imagine the chances at higher levels due to combination of iterative attacks with feats such as "improved two weapon fighting" and "greater two weapon fighting"... also imagine the complications with magical/powerful weapons. Personally i can easily see this as getting abused.</blockquote>
