Greg Baxen 0 Posted November 2, 2015 #1 Report Share Posted November 2, 2015 I have a question.If a player is wielding a one-handed weapon, but has no item equipped in their off hand, can they use Martial Arts Sword Arts? Quote Report Link to post Share on other sites
Kalesh 0 Posted November 2, 2015 #2 Report Share Posted November 2, 2015 Tristan told me no when I asked if I could use martial arts with my claws, he claimed you had to unequipped the weapon entirely but I call BS on that personally based on Kirito killing Kuradeel.If it were up to me and it is not, I'd say you'd have to spend an action sheathing your sword first.

Calrex 0 Posted November 2, 2015 #3 Report Share Posted November 2, 2015 ^ Actually Kalesh your second sentence is correct. It's just that you can't wield them simultaneously, so you can't hit with your sword in one turn, then switch to Martial Arts in the second. Unequipping your weapon "entirely" usually costs a turn, no matter what weapon it is.I used to switch between Martial Arts and my One-Handed Straight Sword, and that was the rules that was told to me as well.So no:Post 1 w/ weapon > Post 2 w/ Martial ArtsYes:Post 1 w/ weapon > Post 2 switch > Post 3 w/ Martial Arts Quote Report Link to post Share on other sites

Kalesh 0 Posted November 2, 2015 #5 Report Share Posted November 2, 2015 Ah, I think there was a miscommunication then. To me 'equipped' means on your person, not as having the weapon in your hands. For example, in a scabbard to me is equipped. Quote Report Link to post Share on other sites

To me 'equipped' means on your person, not as having the weapon in your hands. For example, in a scabbard to me is equipped.Equipped means you are using the weapon. If you're not using the weapon in your hand, its not being used in combat. Either way, sword arts for when you currently have a weapon equipped which use martial arts are already available.
