Hello
This is most likely an odd situation
I played a lot of 1st and 2nd edition along with rolemaster but when they came out with 3rd edition I pretty much stopped d&d and stayed with rolemaster. I didn't want to buy a new set of books,learn a new system and i felt d&d was getting too much like rolemaster
Recently I joined a group of players who never tried 1st edition and wanted to try. The DM wanted me as i had years of experience with 1st
Now it was decided that once we get to 4th level we switch over to 3.5 and use the core roles
I have a human ranger str 16 int 14 wis 15 dex 17 con 17 cha 12. the rest of the party will be another ranger, rogue , druid and cleric 1
I have to choose between archery and TWF and the other ranger is going to be an archery so I thought about going TWF
Based on what I been reading archery is better then TWF and I seen some discussions about 2HW is better then TWF.
The one thing I thought about trying but after reading up on the rules I realize that it probably be bad is taking TWF and use weapons like hand axes, dual wielding tomahawks has a certain appeal to me and something I would enjoy but I have a feeling it be bad build. I don't care if I do the most damage or not I just want to feel that I am pulling my weight in combat
I just like to hear from people tried both how do they compare and if they felt TWF was ok what weapons and feats did they use. Most threads I seen people are using builds that have feats from all the books
The one other thing Is i read that taking levels in rogue helps TWF as you get sneak attack. If so when do you take levels in rogue and how many levels
