Benefit: Once you take this feat, your penalties on attack rolls for fighting with two weapons are reduced. Using a one-handed weapon (simple, martial, or exotic, regardless of size) in your off-hand is more difficult than using a light weapon (simple, martial, or exotic, regardless of size) in your off-hand. See table, below.
Normal: If you wield a second weapon in your off hand, you can get one extra attack per round with that weapon during a full attack action. At higher levels, you may receive additional attacks with your main hand due to your increased level, but you never receive additional attacks with your off-hand weapon unless you have a feat that allows you to do so. When fighting with two weapons you suffer penalties with both hands, depending upon the amount of skill (feats) you have with two-weapon fighting. An unarmed strike is always considered a light weapon.
