Quick draw, blink back belt and number of attacks.


Rules Questions


Ok let's say I have a blink back belt and have a BAB of 11, I have TWF and ITWF, and GTWF.

I carry one thrown weapon in my Blink back belt, maybe a dagger or javelin.

Can I quick draw and throw the weapon 3 times, and only use my main hand or can I quick draw the dagger with my main hand 3 times, and then because the dagger is still a weapon on my belt can I quick draw it again with my off hand for 6 attacks.

Is their any rule, in writing, in the book, that says I have to throw a different weapon?

It's in the FAQ:

Quote:
The two-weapon fighting option in the Core Rulebook specifically refers to getting an extra attack for using a second weapon in your offhand.

(bolding mine)

Otherwise it'd be possible to simply free action switch hands during a regular two-weapon full attack.


If you're trying to two weapon fight with one weapon, then it's not two weapon fighting.

Imagine someone with the Quick Draw and TWF feats and one +4 evil-outsider bane dagger and only a +1 dagger as his usual off-hand weapon. He later encounters a devil putting the hurt on the party. He COULD totally quick draw both daggers out and TWF, but he makes the argument that instead he's gonna attack with the +4 evil-outsider bane short sword in main hand, and free action swap the dagger to off-hand and "TWF" with that same dagger for an extra attack with the more beneficial weapon. Doesn't work, nor should it. The action economy is fine, but the rules of two-weapon fighting don't support it. Without using an actual second weapon (other sword, unarmed strike, etc), supposed to use the amount of attacks you get from BAB. The same thing applies to thrown weapons.

Except for stuff like flurry of blows or brawler's flurry which have an exception to the rules and can flurry/twf with a single weapon.
