Quick TWF Question


Rules Questions

Sovereign Court

As the title suggests I have a quick TWF question.

Say you are a lvl 6 Gunslinger with Rapid Shot and TWF but not ITWF fighting, duel wielding Revolvers. What will the attack sequence look like (just using BAB, Rapid Shot and TWF penalties)?

Will it be:
a) +0/+0/+0/-1
b) +0/+0/+0/-5

I'm 99% sure its b, but I'm not not sure and wanted to clarify.

So basically I'm asking does the TWF penalty apply to all attacks made or just to those that use the TWF rules?


b)

yes the -4/-4 applies to all attacks, the first -4 applies to all attacks made with your main hand while the second -4 applies to all attacks made with your off-hand.

Two-Weapon Fighting: "If you wield a second weapon in your off hand, you can get one extra attack per round with that weapon. You suffer a –6 penalty with your regular attack or attacks with your primary hand and a –10 penalty to the attack with your off hand when you fight this way."

"When you fight this way" means using the second weapon to get an extra attack, so those penalties will apply to any attacks you make as part of that full-attack action, including the attack from Haste, a speed weapon, rapid shot, etc. Attacks taken outside that action, like attacks of opportunity, do not take those penalties. (Though they might apply to AoOs taken during that action, depending on GM)
