Hello,
i was wondering if Agile shield fighter applies its bonus even if you attack with a weapon.
Example: i got a tower shield that applies a penalty of -2 to my weapon attack, and -4 to shield bash. With agile shield fighter feat are those penalties reduced to 0/-2 ? or is the shield bash attack only affected?
I didn't understand the wiki description.
Thanks

Re: Agile shield fighter question
If Jegs applies to the server:
Shield Bash has the same Attack Bonus as the weapon attack.
So Tower Shield applies -2 and Shield Bashing -2, so in total -4 to both weapon and shield attack. Agile shield fighter reduces the penalty to -2 for both attacks.
It cannot be further reduced by two weapon fighting.
In the case of a heavy shield you can get no penalty with agile shield fighter.
further information can be found in viewtopic.php?f=25&t=62406

Thanks for the answer.
I tested in Jegs and it works exactly as you said.
I tought the shield bash penalty was only applied to the shield attack.

Re: Agile shield fighter question
I was told (in another forum thread) that TWF does apply but only to the Tower Shield attack for a further -2 AB. Is that wrong then?It cannot be further reduced by two weapon fighting.
