    [​IMG] How many attacks does a two-bladed sword gives? It is the same as dual-wield?

    And how does parry exactly works....

    Parry is a skill you can level up every level.You can choose it in battle in the ring-menue.If you activate it you won't do any attack per round,instead you may block maximal 5 attcks and you have the chance that a block will a counterattack.
    I think you can do with a two-handed sword as much attacks as with a longsword.

    i mean a twin-BLADED sword, NOT a two-HANDED sword. In addition, the description of the twin-bladed for the damage dealt is 1d8/1d8---->wat does this means?

    A two-bladed sword functions exactly like if you were to attack with a weapon in your main hand and a small weapon in your off hand. Normally, this would mean a -8 penalty to each attack. With the Ambidexterity and Two-weapon Fighting feats, this penalty would be reduced to -2 to each attack.

    Personally I think two-bladed swords are the coolest weapons :cool: in the game. The Improved Two-Weapon Fighting feat comes higly recommended, as it gives you an additional attack with the off-hand side of your sword. :D

    Edit: Oh, yeah. The D8/D8 business means that the sword does D8 damage (plus any modifiers, of course) when you attack with one end (main hand) and D8 damage with the other end (off hand). Hope this clarifies things. :)

    [​IMG] IMHO, these twin bladed weapons are somewhat munchkin-atributes. I never tried a double bladed axe, but I think that when I swing that thing, my enemy would dodge one blade and I would chop my leg off with the other.
