Apologies if this is the wrong folder... These forums always confuses me.

Is there an ANALYZE for OffHand weaponry?
I'd like to use one of my weapons for my left hand but using the ANALYZE verb will give me Brawling combo's and not Offhand or the weapon in my left hand combos.

Doubtful since offhand is considered more mastery-type skill than true weapon skill.

I think he's asking for a way to tell the system "yes my main hand is empty, but I want a weapon combo for my offhand weapon, not a brawling one"

It's a hack, but can you swap the weapon to your right hand, analyze, then swap back and do the combo with your left?

This reminds me:

If you are holding a shield, is there any way to Slam with your weapon? I can't constuct any syntax that works -- the game picks your shield to slam with over a pommel strike every time. :/

Two verbs please?
3.0 ended brawling verbs sharing melee verbs (My kingdom for jab, chop, and sweep!), could shield-bash (slam) and pommel strike (ALSO slam) divorce as well?

It's very annoying when I get slam in a combo, since my shield still lags behind my weapon.

Isn't a pommel strike triggered by PUMMEL, or is my memory fading?

It was in 2.0 at least. I honestly can't say if it is in 3.0. I haven't tried it.

Powerhaus has the same memory:

As currently stands, you have:

Slam > shield bash
Slam > pommel strike (you slam a haft at...)

Pummel > slam attack (you slam at...)

Yes, Raist. That's what I was asking about. If I hold my scimitar in my left hand, I'd like to have SE's combo and not Brawl.
Sorry, sometimes my choice of words aren't always as clear to others as it is to myself when I try to explain.

@ILLIENA; Ah, that works. Would I get into trouble for using it if it's considered a hack, tho?

By "hack", I just meant it's inelegant. I can't imagine anyone having a problem with you doing it.

Okay, thanks! I'll work around that. Appreciate it!

Wouldn't it be easier to just hold a second melee weapon in your right hand to make sure you get melee weapon attacks when using analyze, but only offhand attack with your left hand weapon?
