Hi Guys,

Looking for some help.

How would you build the following.

A hero in my party is getting an upgrade and is getting two swords called Gemini thinking of the following:-

Paired weapons (make 2 attacks)
Deflect
Can be thrown (would lose paired weapons ability, but comes back to hand after a round or so!!)
They each do a little more dmg than a normal sword

Cheers,

Steve

Well, by RAW, you can treat his magic swords as ordinary swords (but because they are a special magic material they do x3 Dmg+Brawn bonus each if they are 1 handed).

OR you can treat them as a power, in which case it is "Special Attack <Easily>"

There are benefits to each method.

The first method is good because it can be combined with Weapon Technique, among other things.

The second method is good because it has the potential to do more damage (on average) and also because you can combine range, area, etc, with it. So if you want to occasionally throw the sword, add some range to it. If you want to mix it up, make it Variable. Then you can do things like whirlwind attacks, etc.
