Or are those purely for a primary attack? This problem has been nagging me for ages, and I can't seem to find an answer in the books.

Shadow080 01-19-05, 09:16 PM	So, for example, if I make a full attack with two weapons I get additional attacks from the high BAB for the primary and only the single attack for the offhand. Is that right?

Is that right? Right on the button. But if you take imp. TWF, you get 2 off hand attacks. Greater TWF grants 3, provided you have the BaB for 2 and 3 attacks, respectively. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v91/yawgmoth/kittyjig.gif

MrkGrismer 01-20-05, 05:54 PM	An off-hand weapon is an off-hand weapon, whether it be shortsword, longsword, or shield bash.
