Is there any feat that further reduces TWF penalties? Like with a one-handed and a light weapon, you have a -2 penalty on each. Is there anything to reduce that?

Weapon Focus effectively reduces the penalty by 1.
Greater Weapon Focus effectively reduces the penalties by 2.

i recommend the ambidexderity feat which allows you to lessen the penality to -1 i think. also if you are injured with your better hand you don't get the -4 penality with your worse hand like beeing able to fight with our left one equally as your right one

Ambidexterity was rolled into Two Weapon Fighting in 3.5 for simplicity reasons. Unless there's a 3.5 Ambidexterity feat of which I'm not aware.

The Tempest class does it, but there aren't any feats.

Weapon Focus is good if both weapons are the same. If the weapons are different like a long and short sword then it would require two more uses of Weapon Focus to lose the penalties.

This is only so helpful, but if you're using the same light exotic weapon, the Exotic Weapon Master PrC has a stunt that lessens your TWF penalties to -1. Combined with the Weapon Focus prerequisite, you'll have an effective +0.

I've made a house rule feat for this, Advanced Two Weapon Fighting, that besides the Two Weapon Fighting feat has BAB +8 as a prerequisite. And it lessens the penalty by 2 for each weapon.

But there's nothing official.

Thanks. Can't wait for Level 3 weapon finesse. +5 dex FTW.
