Slashing Grace not working with 1h plus shield, only with 1h and nothing in off hand.
This is not as per rules or intended.

Been holding on 2 levels end game to get the scimitar Im running with shield.

Any agile weapon works fine using shield as should fencing grace and, or Slashing grace.

But right now Slashing grace will give you the to hit but NOT the damage bonus but ONLY when wielding a shield.

Back to two weapon fighting bugged its literally same thing. So Im assuming slashing grace and two weapon fighitng will be bugged as well, you fixed the rogue finesse feat but you managed to screw up slashing grace and likely fencing grace.

Been playing now 4th playthrough until act 4, a little tired of Sim City, forced kingdom management cause automatic not working.

Loading times > Spending 35% of total game time in loading screens on an I7 CPU and decent video card, AAA titels working just fine.

Been extremly patient and really liking the game but my god. Alpha stage guys whats going on.

If I picked up Agile weapons it will just work but when you invest feats into it and not going rogue it should work as well, honestly I didnt try cause was unsure if I wanted to go down the route of one weapon, took focus some levels ago and waited to level up but the save is maybe 30 hour game time back.

Maybe its just the Bear lightning, thunder scimitar not working with slashing grace I dont know.

Again it does work IF you unequip the shield. The feat means you need to wield it in one hand, you can also wield a weapon in off hand OR a shield and it works fine. After all its 2 weapon feats invested to get what strenght builds gets for free.

Man I would play this game so much more if you didnt need to micro manage your kingdom so much.

After act 3 you spend 75% kingdom management 25% playing the game.

I wonder who play tested this stuff. And I even done it a few times now giving it a chance, trying builds but the game just is not very fun after a while. Too many bugs, extreme loading times and memory leaks, key feats for builds not working.

Sort it out, I have not spent this much time in a game for years and its just cause Im an old school PNPer and love the build possibilities and combat in the game but again we spend more time in Sim Kingdom then actually playing the damn game.

And you dont even want to go to the capital cause you might as well go to do shopping and come back and its still loading into the city.

Sorely dissapointed.

Don't know about the tooltip in game, but slashing grace works only when wielding a single one handed weapon. It's at the bottom of the description.

Some feats have left important things out of their description despite being implemented correctly :(

Yes I noticed the desciption but nothing about a shield in that content.

Read through the basic feat and your correct you can not use a shield if the feat follow the rules.

Also the feat is useless for me since I actually do have 1 level monk for flurry of blows which works with all my attacks all through the game, running unarmored with a shield.

As per rules Slashing grace also dont work with flurry of blows, making it even worse.

This simply means nogo anyway and at least I only wasted weapon focus.

Too bad indeed.

I am not too familiar with pathfinder rules so turned off the simplified feat description but that dont change anything.

This feat description above means : You need to be 1 handed with nothing in your off hand. If you invested in sword and board, your screwed.
If your using flurry of blows for melee and running unarmored and invested in this : Your screwed.

What works is agile weapons and guess I sit tight and wait for them to pop. But the entire build just fell apart at level 16:)
