[quote=@SimplyJohn] That sounds a little too powerful to be a Trait, it's basically permanently doubling Pierce's Attack with no cost or penalty. Perhaps a Skill like this would be more balanced: [indent]'[i][b]Backup Piece:[/b][/i] [color=yellow]Cost -3 Energy/Turn[/color]; Pierce gains the [i][b]Dual Wield[/b][/i] Status Effect, when Pierce uses a normal Attack action, he may attack twice rather than just once while [i][b]Dual Wield[/b][/i] is in effect. This trait does not apply to attacks done through Skills.'[/indent] The continuous Energy drain would limit how long and how often Pierce would be able to maintain [i][b]'Dual Wield'[/b][/i] for, as well as making the [i]'Extended Clip'[/i] Trait more useful (at full Energy Pierce would be able to maintain [i][b]'Dual Wield'[/b][/i] for seven rounds, rather than only four.) He'd also use a round's Action each time he activated the Skill, taking the time to draw and prepare his second weapon, unless he chose to use [i]'Quick Draw'[/i] to speed up his preparation which would mean he'd only be able to maintain [i][b]'Dual Wield'[/b][/i] for two rounds (or four if he had the [i]'Extended Clip'[/i] Trait as well.) [/quote] I was considering that it might be a bit too powerful. I do like this alternative idea you have proposed, though. Seems better balanced.
