Title: Assassins and wielding weapons
Post by: Kage on March 14, 2007, 01:39:45 am
As an assassin , I found when duel wielding swords or daggers and umounted I only seemed to make 2 attacks, main and offhand,  In spite of maxed weapon type, dual wield and second and third attacks.  When you mount though, you seem to get all your attacks with weapons.  Is this a known hinderance to assassins or perhaps an oversight?

Your weapon usage is limited when you assume some hand-to hand fighting style.
Making an assassin that uses weapons is a perverse way to play, but I've seen it done effectively at least once (that assassin relaxed his style while fighting with weapons).

welll put.  I see, so I when mounted I lost style, as a result normal weapon attacks.  Appreciated, I imagine the only purpose of style and weapon combo would be to utilize style only skills and return to normal.  Thanks
