Okay, I'll break down it down with a couple examples. Every example is made at BAB +7 and no other modifier.
*
A character with a longsword takes an attack action and makes a single attack with his longsword. This attack is made at +7.
The same character takes a full-attack action to make two attacks. The first is made at +7, and the second is made at +2.The same character now wields a dagger in his other hand. She takes a full-attack action to make two attacks. She can choose whether to attack with only the dagger, sword, or both. In either case, she only makes two attacks at +7 and +2.
*
A character, who holds both a longsword and a dagger, and possesses the Two-Weapon Fighting feat, intends to take a full-attack action.
He can choose to make a normal full-attack, resulting in two attacks. He can also choose to gain one extra attack, by suffering the penalties for Two-Weapon Fighting.Since he has the Two-Weapon Fighting feat, and the off-hand weapon is a light weapon (the dagger), he only suffers a -2 penalty to his attacks with his main/off hand. He gains one extra attack, and his new attack routine is +5/+5/0.
However, he can not decide in which order to attack since he uses two-weapon fighting to gain an attack. The second attack at +5 is always made with his off-hand, and the rest of the attacks are made with his main hand.Also, he'd only add half of his Strength modifier to the damage of his off-hand attack.
****
Same characters as above, but they do now both have a bite attack.
The female character, who doesn't attempt to gain an extra attack with two-weapon fighting, takes a full-attack action. She makes two attacks with her longsword at +7 and +2, while also making a bite attack.
This bite attack is normally a primary natural attack, and would be made at +7. However, since she's attacking with her manufactured weapons the bite attack is downgraded to a secondary attack. This means it has a -5 penalty and that she only adds half of her Strength modifier to...
Thanks mate think i understand, and i can two weapon fight with greatswords due to the archetype titan mauler, jotun grip ability. But that helped a lot.
So if say both weapons are +3 same sword its just a flat +3 when fighting using either correct?
