Re: number of attacks question
That's the correct number of attacks
You gain 2nd at BAB = 6 and 3rd at BAB = 11. Your 4th attack will come with BAB = 16.

Re: number of attacks question
With a BAB of 12 you should have 3 attacks per round, which you do. 19/14/9 is three attacks per round.Hakken2 wrote:My character Bhor Stonecutter has a BAB 12 and should have a changes to make more attacks then one each round. But it never happens.

Re: number of attacks question
Characters with 11-15 BAB will get 3 attacks in a combat round (spanning approximately 6 seconds), provided the sequence is not interrupted in some way such as moving around or being stunned, to name a couple.
Were you moving around a lot in battle? If so, movement "cancels" the attack sequence and you will need to wait for the next combat round to roll over before you can attack again.

Re: number of attacks question
I think you might be confusing rounds with flurries.
Rounds are simply 6 second intervals where you go from highest to lowest AB attack.
Flurries happen 3 times in a round, thus, to have 2 attacks in your first flurry you must at least have 4 attacks in the round. It does not matter if it is from dual wielding, Haste or BAB.
This is also why Sneak Attackers go for massive amount of attacks/round, even if the majority will never land: it forces the game to put more attacks in the first flurry.
As a side note... the most OP thing in terms of flurries imho is a monk assassin dual-wielding kamas, who is hasted and affected by Legionaries' March near a 30 BAB character
