TWO-WEAPON FIGHTING

Learn how Neverwinter's Two-Weapon Fighting feat reduces penalties for using a weapon in each hand, from -6/-10 to -4/-8.

Required For: Improved Two-Weapon Fighting

Use: This general feat is crucial for effective dual-wielding. The normal penalty of -6 to your primary hand and -10 to your off-hand is reduced to -4 for the primary hand and -8 to the off-hand. The Ambidexterity feat further reduces the attack penalty for the second weapon by 4, resulting in a -4/-4 penalty. For best results, use a light weapon in your off-hand, which further reduces the penalty for both hands by 2, leading to a -2/-2 penalty. Rangers automatically receive this feat for free at 1st level.
