Two-Weapon Stance [Fighter]
Swooosh... Swiiing... Slashlashlashlash...Prerequisites: BAB +1, Dex 13Benefit: Whenever you wield two weapons, you may enter the Two-Weapon Stance as a swift action. The stance lasts until the start of your next turn. When you are in this stance, the BAB-interval at which you can make iterative attacks decreases from 5 to 3. Your second attack is made with a -3 penalty, your third attack is made with a -6 penalty, and so forth. You can continue to make attacks as long as your BAB minus the accumulated penalty is 1 or higher or until you have made a minimum of two attacks.
During a full attack when using two-weapon fighting, depending on your choice of weapons you can choose in which order you attack with which weapon. A one-handed weapon can make only one consecutive attack, whereas a light weapon can make a maximum of two consecutive attacks. Consecutive attacks with a single weapon require you to be able to attack at least three times.
If you wield a one-handed weapon in both hands, you incur a -2 penalty to attack rolls.
The stance will end if you lose, discard, drop or are otherwise disarmed of one or both of your weapons.
Example: Using the Two-Weapon Stance, a 10th-level fighter can attack four times (+10/+7/+4/+1). Because of the minimum of two attacks allowed by this feat, a 2nd-level fighter can attack twice (+2/-1).Special: This feat counts as Two-Weapon Fighting for the purpose of meeting prerequisites.
