What's the best way to utilize Two-Fisted Shooter?
At first I went straight to a character dual-wielding hand crossbows. However, that really only gives you the benefit of making an extra attack when you score a critical hit.
My next thought was a crossbow in one hand and a blade in the other. This gives you versatility; select powers that can use either a light blade or a ranged weapon, and you can do the same things wherever you are on the battlefield. The only downside to this is that you'll provoke an AoO if you score a critical hit while in melee range.
Or am I missing something? Is there a better use for this? Or is there a better way to get the same outcome?
