Pimp: "Can you dual wield rapiers?"

Whore: "I can handle dual Kukris why?

Pimp: "Can you handle a Greatsword and a Tower Shield at the same time?"

Whore: "Of course...Are we just gunna talk or what because I got lots of swords I could be playing with"

Pimp: "Your spunky as well...you got the job"

Naah. Do like I do, dualwield bastardswords (with dwarf). That looks awesome.... Okay I get -4/-4, but then again. I still hit enemies pretty well... Though, if you take "non-fighter"-type levels before level 20, you get lower BAB which might make it difficult to hit... I was 12 fighter and 7 weaponmaster before 20. Keen edge spell is coming soon and I get criticalrange to 13-20... with devastating critical a bit later I'm going to kick some serious ashes... why settle for kukris when you can use big guns. And if I need some extra offense & defense, I just put expertise on and cast truestrike, maybe even equip shield

I just wish that truestike would last so very, very much longer... hihihi

Uhm... What? That doesn't make any sense. Sure, you can use it with weapon finesse, but I'm quite sure it's considered a one handed weapon (or medium or whatever you want to call it). Ok, I must confess, I'm not quite sure on how NWN manages disarm, but if it's like in the PnP then having a light weapon gives penalty, but I don't think rapier does. There's other situations where the size of the weapon makes a difference (can't remember any in NWN right now though).

But maybe I'm just being nit picky...
Rapier is a medium sized weapon which is considered a light weapon for the purposes of the weapon finesse feat, just that.
That's what I meant. I guess I was being nit picky...

Ha, thankyou Mort. Getting all my feats mixed up there it seems.

On another note I've been curious of, Ambidex and TWF are great but how much further does Improved Two Weapon Fighting(ITWF) help even more?

Improved 2 weapon fighting gives you an extra attack with your offhand weapon at -5 the AB of the first one
