Is dual wielding bugged?

I was messing around with a character still in Candlekeep.

He is specialized (**) in scimitar and (**) in two weapon fighting.

His first attack in a new round was always with his offhand weapon (with the appropriate penalties). Every other round, he would get two attacks with the off-hand weapon and one Attack with his main hand weapon.

Any idea why this happens? Is there a fix?

Are you sure you start attacking with off-hand? That should not happen often, maybe should occur very, very rarely. Does the combat log say 'off hand' when you attack?

Off-hand attack should add +1 attack per round. No more than that. +½ attack from specialisation should kick in every other round and it should be from the main hand, AFAIK.

So your attack pattern should be:

First round:
Right hand
Off-hand

Second round:
Right hand
Off-hand
Right hand

I agree that is what should happen.

What I'm saying is true: I get 1 ApR with the main hand weapon, and 1.5 ApR with the off-hand weapon.

The first attack always comes with the off-hand weapon, and has a total of -4 on the THAC0 when compared to the main hand weapon.

If someone can tell me how to take a screenshot (Samsung Galaxy Tab 3.0 7"), and how to post it, I would be happy to.

Seems you need to simultaneously hold down the Power and home buttons for 1-2 seconds.

Of course I have absolutely no idea where the screenshot will end up.

Probably in the gallery app.

Weird, I could not recreate the bug.
