I'm working on an update to the FAQ/Errata doc over the weekend, once the rest of PCI has a stab at it I'll post it for general consumption/discussion before it goes official.

Could you address the returning from vanquished state question here also? It might not be an Eratta but a clarification. Question: Can all methods of healing (Skill, Talents like Leadership, and Spells) restore a PC from Vanquished? When can the target act next? Only the Heal Skill use specifies this. Thanks |

PCI_StatMonkey wrote: while this may require some official errata to enforce, TWF + Unarmed should NOT be able to be preformed while benefiting from a shield. I think the best way to do so would be to errata the two-weapon fighting talent. What about Ss'ressen? If the off-hand attack is tail (unarmed or tail bracer), the shield arm is still free to do whatever is needed. I see no reason why Ss'ressen can't attack (TWF or not) with their tail and still benefit from a shield (and if they can't when using TWF then why can they when attacking just with their tail?). |

Pedro, the simplest eratta / clarification would be to say that "unarmed fighting requires a and open hand or tail and two weapon fighting requires two open hands or an open hand and a tail." |

Pedro, this seems like an unnecessary ruling? Is it for balancing reasons? Because TWF is sub optimal for an Unarmed, any speed 3 weapon, or any exceptional speed 4 weapon. I don't see the harm to in a TWF keeping his shield bonus. They can TWF and cast unlike other Dual-Wielders, why not shield and TWF too. I feel it is another errata entry for no reason. There isn't really a balancing issue. Unarmed isn't the most impressive weapon. TWF with a speed 3 weapon in either hand is pointless. You take an attack penalty and a chance to have no available target for your second attack with no gain. Even Spinning Strikes counting it's damage isn't that impressive when speed 3 weapons are involved when you take into account the -2 penalty. EDITED |

The spreadsheet I made shows TWF is suboptimal for damage output regardless of weapons until you heavily invest in it with Balanced Blades, and combine Spinning Strikes with other bonus damage maneuvers.
