Number of Attacks per round

Jota

I just made a Kensage level 16/17 with grandmastery in axes...but my number of attacks is only 7/2!

I though I would regain all of my kensai abilities after reaching level 17 with mage so I should have more attacks per round

elminster

Grandmastery gives 1.5, level 13 gives 1, and you start with 1.
That makes it 3.5 or 7/2.
If you want more you are going to have to equip a speed weapon (a weapon that specifically increases your APR) or dual wield.

Jota

hum....but is it because of now being a mage? I am pretty sure that before dual classing my Kensai had 9/2 APR

@elminster‌ is right, check http://cdn.icewinddale.com/files/IWDEE_Manual_2_-_Mastering_Melee_&_Magic.pdf , search "Weapon Specialization"

As a Grand Master you get 5/2 APR, additional half-attack per round is given at 7th and 13th level.

So, at the 16th level you get 7/2 APR.

If before dual-classing your Kensai, @Jota‌ , had 9/2 APR, then he had a speed weapon as the second weapon: you got additional +1 APR from the second weapon and another additional +1 APR from the "+1 ARP" ability of that weapon.

hum I am proficient in single weapon! I possibly didn't see it the right way! Or I just confused my Kensai APR with my Archer Thank you for your help!

Can look for the Ring of Reckless Action for +1 APR.

5 APR is maximum unhasted. 10 APR with improved haste.

With your kensei abilities you probably don't need any points in dual wielding to be very good at it.

Jota

Normally I always play a dual wielder, this time around I decided to Roleplay and use a party different from everything I am used to! Where does the Ring of Recless Action drop @Wowo‌ ?

Lower Dorn's Deep, Malavons Sanctuary (AR8010), random item in container located at x = 2000, y = 300
