I've allways noticed warriors dont get any more than 3 attacks/round,
without any magical help/ weapons ...
But i kinda did some calculating, the way i though was right :

*** in longswords = 2 x 1/2 attack xtra
** in katana's = 1 x 1/2 attack xtra
dual wielding = 1 x 1/2 attack xtra
13 th lvl warrior = base 5/2 attacks

sooo ... 5/2 + 4 x 1/2 = 5/2 + 4/2 = 9/2
I then altered my nr. of attacks with Shadow keeper, to get this number.

Note that this means , ( I'm a kensai/Mage 13/14 ) , that with
-Improved Haste-, i get 9 attacks / round, for 3 rounds + 1 /lvl .
( 17 rounds at this point )

Being the allmighty powerhouse right now, did i do my math correct ?
Is there some rule, that says you cant get more than 3 attacks/round or something ?

Thx for any replies [img]smile.gif[/img]

The most attacks per round is 5 for any character.... Your adding up is correct but you cannot carry this out.......

Unless you cast improved haste [img]smile.gif[/img]

Or if you get TOB and get the Whirlwind ability you can up your attacks to 10

More attacks is good, but make sure you have low thac0 as well, whats the modifier for that? dexterity?

STR affects the THACO of melee attacks.
DEX affects the THACO of range attacks.

10 again but with greater whirlwind you don't suffer the -4 thaco penalty

PEOPLE WHO HAVEN'T GOT PAST THE ASYLUM YET READ AT OWN RISK CONTAINS A WHOOPING SPOILER

p.s try improved hasting your self as the slayer you will have 10 attacks then, and it lasts quite a while or at least until you have to revert back to your normal form

="The most attacks per round is 5 for any character.... Your adding up is correct but you cannot carry this out......." =

9/2 = 4.5 attacks ... so it is inside the 5 attacks/round limit, right ?
Does this mean I'm legal :D !! ??

Your maths is correct but it doesn't work that way in SoA, Grand Mastery does not yield an extra attack, it stays at 3/2 attacks per round.
Normally you would get 5 attacks, but Bioware decided it was too powerful and 'nerfed' it. There's a fix for that somewhere on the net.
