Redo THF animation while moving; give us back glancing blows

[Junts]

Im not missing the point, but arguing about TWF vs THF rogues and monks is pointless. You could give rogues and monk all the THF feats for free and they would still be TWF. The cost, in this case, is mostly irrelevant since there is no viable alternative.


Speaking of sacrifices, look at those stats.

The THF 18/8/18 sacrifices 3-4 reflex, 3-4 to hit with ranged weapons and possibly 3-4 ac (not important on a barb, but the same stats can apply to fighters, etc..)
The TWF 18/15/15 sacrifices only 20-40 hp?

IMO, 3-4 reflex and ranged capability is a better stat investment then 20-40 hp. Others may disagree.
The point is neither build really makes any relevant sacrifices worth justifying anything. Dex on a THF is just as valuable as dex on a TWF.

Ranged capability? Do your characters range anything ever that isn't a lever? Mine don't, except maybe plinking the dq a few times if the casters are particularly slow nuking her back to the platform the first time.

I'd accept the dex argument really if and only if the gb changes lead to 18/2 barb/rogue builds being better off thf: if you're not evading, those 3-4 reflex are not that big a deal.

The only reasons I see to put points in dexterity are max dex bonus of armor and twf. Unsurprisingly, nearly every other build does leave dex at 8.
