In a current campaign there is a half Orc with the toothy trait. The Half Orc also has the two weapon fighting feat. The GM ruled that you can either attack with your offhand weapon or bite but not both. Essentially you get two attacks a round not three.

Is this the correct way to apply the rules?


I have a home brew campaign going and need some clarification on the rules.

In one of the cities there is a halfling rogue (villain) that the players have framed for grave robbing. They also had infected him with devil chills. They since left town and have left the local law to sort out the poor rogue.

The villain build was a level 10 rogue with two weapon fighting and improved two weapon fighting, along with unarmed strike. Before they framed him for grave robbing I had a concept around him being somewhat unassuming but able to sneak attack for decent damage unarmed.

Now since it has been so long, I was planning on them coming back and finding out that the poor rogue was convicted and burned at the stake for grave robbing.

The twist of course is that this makes a great backstory for a ghost. The challenge I am having is that my interpretation of the rules is not clear on the a couple of the rules.

1) Would sneak attack dice apply on Corrupting Touch?
2) Would sneak attack dice apply on Draining Touch
3) I would presume that if sneak attack dice apply to either 1 or 2 above then also things like befuddling strike, offensive defense, crippling strike would apply to that sneak attack
4) Corrupting touch is a standard action, so I would assume that TWF would not apply?
5) However Draining touch is a granted touch attack, so could this be used with TWF and/or an iterative attack (Essentially 4 attacks per round with TWF and Iterative attacks)

Thanks in advance for any insights.

I am a long time gamer and the biggest blunder for any TTRGP was probably the change made with Living Greyhawk to 4.0e. I can't speak to other areas, but there was a mass exodus of players from what was once a cohesive group.

The downfall of the change with most of people I know was that he they considered this a cash grab to replace all of your old 3.5 books to the new 4.0.

PF changing to a new system that wholesale replaces all of their old books will have a segment of their current fan base that will feel similarly.

I just started playing PF within the last couple of years after taking a major hiatus when LG was scrapped. For the most part I like the tweaks they made to 3.5. Running a home brew campaign for an entirely new group of players, I really like how accessible everything is from my tablet. The ease of looking things up online really makes it an easy system to run from a GM'ing point of view.

Having around 12 or so off the 3.5e books and only the core rules book when we started, I elected to run PF. I bought some of the books and a few other things from Paizo, as generally speaking I really like how they have implemented the PF gaming system.
