Dual Buckler.


Rules Questions


So, say I have a buckler in each hand, one a +1 blinding, the other a +2.

Now, you can only have 1 shield slot at a time, so which shield do I benefit from? Do I choose from round to round, moment to moment?

Now if it's still relevant, imagine I attack with the active buckler hand. Does the inactive buckler automatically become my active buckler at the moment of my attack?


you just take the higher shield bonus to your AC and all the special effects. The only "problem" with two shields is shield bonus to ac doesn't stack, so only the highest works. Other than that they work together fine.


"You can also use your shield arm to wield a weapon (whether you are using an off-hand weapon or using your off hand to help wield a two-handed weapon), but you take a –1 penalty on attack rolls while doing so."

So a weapon in either hand would take a -1 penalty because of the shield and you would only be able to use one of the shields anyway. Doesn't sound worth it.


Also:

"In any case, if you use a weapon in your off hand, you lose the buckler's AC bonus until your next turn."

Yup. And I'd apply that to your primary hand and any buckler you were holding in it too.
