Hello, got a question about weapon finesse.
If I understand it correctly it gives bonus from dex if higher than str, to BAB.
So having +2dex bonus, bab 6 and +2 weapon that is a small one, I should have 10 bab.
If I understood it correctly ofc. Now the problem is that I have only 6 + weapon +2 which gives me 8 so it seems that Finesse is not working, any ideas or explanations? can't figure out if it's a bug or just I am in some dead point

Weapon Finesse works only with light weapons (or one size smaller than you).

Re: Weapon Finesse question
Does this mean a Medium creature under effect of the spell Enlarge Person to be a Large creature can use Weapon Finesse with a Longsword, which is a medium size weapon?matelener wrote:Weapon Finesse works only with light weapons (or one size smaller than you).

No, because that spell in nwn2 doens't truly inscrease the size (so, no knockdown bonus eighter).Darradarljod wrote:Does this mean a Medium creature under effect of the spell Enlarge Person to be a Large creature can use Weapon Finesse with a Longsword, which is a medium size weapon?matelener wrote:Weapon Finesse works only with light weapons (or one size smaller than you).

i'm an elf using rapier+dagger - does not work. Tried to pick only dagger in one hand, still no effect.

Re: Weapon Finesse question
If your dexterity is higher then it should work with rapier and dagger. Might be your character sheet is bugging out. Check the combat window for the right numbers.

Re: Weapon Finesse question
Looks to me like you might be forgetting to calculate in the penalty of two weapons fighting?
