Let's assume somebody has the Master Speed force power, and Flurry. That's 5 attacks per round (ApR) (1 standard, 1 from dual wielding, 2 from Master Speed, 1 from Flurry).

If you're using dual lightsabers, how are these attacks split up? Is it 4 with the main weapon and 1 with the offhand (like it is in Baldur's Gate II), or is it split up 3/2? If it's 3/2, is it always 3 with the main and 2 with the offhand weapon, or do they alternate?

Thanks a lot, in advance.

Oh, squiggly line in my eye fluid. I see you lurking there on the periphery of my vision. But when I try to look at you, you scurry away. Are you shy, squiggly line? Why only when I ignore you, do you return to the center of my eye? Oh, squiggly line, it's alright, you are forgiven.

I'll have to check this, but it's possible it's actually 7 attacks in a round. 1 standard, 1 off-hand, 1 with your main weapon from flurry, 2 with both weapons from Master Speed. Now I'm not certain about the last, as it makes dual-wielding even more powerful. If it isn't the case then I'm nearly certain that the extra attacks are all going to be with the main weapon. I will load one of my save games and check, if I can find one with a dual-wielder handy.

Back from the brink.

Like RPGs? Like Star Wars? Think combining the two would be fun? Read Darths and Droids, and discover the line "Jar Jar, you're a genius".

These, in the day when heaven was falling,
The hour when earth's foundations fled,
Followed their mercenary calling
And took their wages and are dead.

It's four with the main, and one with the off hand. Or so it should be as it is from the damage calc's. And it wouldn't make any sense to give such an advantage.
