more snow here too calling for 2-5 inches..... and we just go like 16 - 24 inches last Friday.

[Stonjuz]

Just noticed, ....or rather, its the first time it has come up.....but i need stated alignments from Cobbler & Greystarr.
I am assuming some form of good, but ....let me know and update. thnx

[ragnboneshopper]

Of course.... the doctor is the only one that fumbles! Just my luck, heh.

The halforc hasnt rolled yet. If i just go with his last posted roll, and i might , he failed also

Just gave you the roll, Ston. Sorry!

[Stonjuz]

init: isn't there a adjustment for dex? [1d10] = 6

Yes, there is.....but you did not manage to connect until your third??? attack, and i do not usually have all attacks happen instantly.

[wolfpack]

OK so the 14 missed

[grey_starr]

I'm pretty sure Cobbler doesn't get more attacks then I do... With Two weapons, after 3rd it is 3/2 - so 3 attacks first round, then 2 attacks second round, repeat. No? With one weapon it's 2 attacks first round, then 1 attack second round, repeat.

[GreyWolfVT]

Alright so how many attacks do I get as I only have been doing 1 and had no idea how many I was supposed to have.

[grey_starr]

Errrr... So in a nut shell...

Warrior
Level 1-6 gives 1/round, Specialized gives 3/2 rounds
Level 7-12 gives 3/2 rounds, Specialized gives 2/round
Level 13 & up gives 2/round, Specialized gives 5/2 rounds

So to clarify (just in case):
3/2 is a choice of 2 or 1 attacks first round then, then the remainder the next round so it totals 3.
2 is of course 2 attacks each round...
5/2 is a choice of 3 or 2 attacks first round then, then the remainder the next round so it totals 5.

Wait a second - you play Strongarm ... not Cobbler

[GreyWolfVT]

bummer as I am a dual/multiclass I only get the one....yes I play Strongarm he's a fighter lvl 2 Cleric lvl 2 >.<

you right for some reason I was thinking specialization was 2/1 not 3/2. will correct from now on.

[grey_starr]

You know... looking at what I posted - that is for one weapon... so specialized holding two weapons gives one more attack per round (Which is what Benson has been doing):

Level 1-6 gives 1/round, Specialized gives 3/2 rounds, Specialized with Two Weapons in hand 5/2 rounds
Level 7-12 gives 3/2 rounds, Specialized gives 2/round, Specialized with Two Weapons in hand 3/round
Level 13 & up gives 2/round, Specialized gives 5/2 rounds, Specialized with Two Weapons in hand 7/2 rounds

[NJWilliam]

Unless it's different in 2E, in my experience the consensus on dual wielding in 1E, is that you get one attack per round with the off hand and then whatever the attack rate is with the primary hand.

So 1 att/round = 1 primary plus 1 off-hand
3/2 = 2 primary plus 1 off-hand, alternating with 1 primary plus 1 off-hand
2 = 2 primary plus 1 off-hand
5/2 = 3 primary plus 1 off-hand, alternating with 2 primary plus 1 off-hand.

Since the off-hand attacks usually have different THAC0, you can't just increase the attack rate from 3/2 to 5/2, for instance.

[GreyWolfVT]

No additional attacks for Weapon of Choice though right?

[grey_starr]

Nope... I believe that one (would need to verify) is a +1 to hit - if it's what I think it is.

[GreyWolfVT]

doesn't say in my phb but mine is the unrevised book .... trying to find out.

[Stonjuz]

A character receives a +1 bonus on all attack rolls when using his weapon of choice

[GreyWolfVT]

Thanks.

[grey_starr]

i like being right

[GreyWolfVT]

I added the +1 to hit in my roll macro for hit with the flail. I like it when you are right as well grey_starr
