I did a search but i didn't find anything,
but where can i find my attacks per round?
or are they all the same in NWN.

And if their not, do i get 3attacks per round when dual-wielding?
or when using a 2sided weapon (2bladed sword, diremace etc.)??

If you get multiple attacks, your character sheet will list more than one Attack Bonus (e.g. +7, +2).

When you look on your character sheet and it says attack bonus +7, +2 that means you get 2 attacks per round, 1 with a bonus of +7 the second with a bonus of +2. As for off-hand attacks a little farther down on the sheet it should say Off-Hand then list the weapon you are using in your off-hand and give the base attack with that weapon as well. The only way to get bonus offhand attacks however is to use the improved 2 weapon fighting feat.

@Stilgar, I would say so. I had the Harbinger (sp?) great sword forged in chapter 1. My cleric, with a strength modifying spell, wields it at +12/+3. So I would guess from what has been said, the first attack is +12, my second attack per round +3

The BAB, or, Base Attack Bonus is the (surprisingly

) bonus your character gets in his/her attacks. So if for example you have a level 7 Paladin, you have a BAB of +7/+2. A level 7 Wizard would get +3 only.

That means that a Paladin's first attack per round gets +7 and his second +2. The Wizard only gets one attack per round, at +3 to his attack bonus.

Everything nice and tidy?
