Two weapon fighting question

[Brotter24]

so since there is a dual wielding class feature with magic and one handed weapon's, will weapon finesse and two weapon fighting help with the whole -4 penalty to the melee attack when both attacks are used?

[Synapse]

I don't know what you mean by weapon finesse allieviating TWF penalties. Those are alleviated only by the TWF feats and weapon selection.

[Phasics]

in a nut shell no

spell combat is it own beast

and only the improved and greater versions of it reduce the penalties. feat which effect TWF won't apply here.

So the general concensus is that two-weapon fighting feat does not decrease the penalties from the "spell combat" abilities of the magus?

I don't get it...I ask for the EK to get basic things like ignore ASF and a spell channeling abilty and I'm called a munchkin...and yet people keep asking for the magus to get a whole extra action at no penalty at level 2 and it's okay?!? Seriously?!? No it doesn't...and no it NEVER SHOULD.

That's because everybody hates the EK! He doesn't even follow a code of chivalry (according to one of my friends the EK doesn't deserve the K part in his title because he isn't one).

That's about the only semi-intelligible reason I can give you.

I can agree with the EK not deserving the K :) . Can't even use full plate with just their class abilities for crying out loud.
