Two weapon fighting feat using 1 handed weapon (not light) in off hand?


Rules Questions


I am playing a dwarf paladin with the two weapon fighting feat. In a recent encounter, I had to fight a succubus who had DR10, so I had a time trying to get past it with my warhammer (d8) and off hand battle aspergillum (d6).

I know about the chain of feats for two weapon fighting, which allow for multiple attacks, but that wouldn't seem to help with the DR issue.

I want to be able to use a 1 handed weapon in my off hand, but get a lower penalty than the -4/-4 for using Two Weapon fighting.

Is there a feat to allow for using a 1 handed weapon (not light) in your off hand and reducing the penalty?

If not, my proposal would be to create one that would require the Two weapon fighting feat as a prerequisite, a 17 dex (as in the Improved Two Weapon Fighting), plus a strength of 17 (to allow for using the 1 handed weapon ).

I would appreciate your input.

Thanks,

Jim


There is no feat to do that in Pathfinder

3.5 have a feat called Oversized Two Weapon Fighting. IIRC it allowed you to treat the weapon in the off-hand as a light weapon.


There is a fighter Arc type that does this. called two weapon fighter. the ability is called Balance (improved balance)


The only other option would be to Use Sawtooth sabers which do d8 damage but are treated as light for TWF.

@Wraithstrike yep that was the name even had a picture of the Iconic ranger duel weilding bastard swords.

Also if you don't have double slice it would help overcome DR since it boost the amount of damage your off-hand deals.
