They do slighly less damage than long swords, and about the same as the rapier usually. I'd also strongly consider taking rouge at level one to get the most advantage from your initial skill points.Īn elf would be a very useful race if you plan to dual wield with swords(long, rapier, short) or be an archer (because of the automatic weapon focus with those weapons), but a human would also be good for a more flexible multi class (who knows, you might want some barbarian or fighter levels as well)as well as extra feats and skill points.įor dual wielding, I'd really suggest just dual wielding short swords. You'll have a ways to go till you can cast spells anyway. You can up the wisdom at level three if you want, then just look for a ring. Where to take those points from? I'd say take points from charisma and wisdom. For a ranger/rougue, I'd try to get that intelligence up to 14 to take advantage of all your skills available to both classes.
