Dual wielding (may also called Akimbo or Two-weaponing) is an ability and a combat technique.
Requirements
To be able to perform this combat technique, your character must be equipped with:
- Any two weapons considered to be unrestricted for dual wielding, see the section below
Weapons suitable for dual wielding
A weapon may be considered restricted (cannot be dual-wielded) or unrestricted, depending on the weapon category they belong to, with some notable exceptions.
| Unrestricted categories | Restricted categories |
|---|---|
| Auto pistol Crude weapon Hand grenade Knife One-handed club One-handed sword Pistol Revolver Thrown weapon |
Archery Axe Combat rifle Conventional rifle Exotic melee Exotic ranged Flamethrower Grenade launcher Machine gun Planted explosive Precision rifle Rocket launcher Shotgun Submachine gun Two-handed club Two-handed sword Staff/Pole weapon Whip/Lash weapon |
The following is a list of weapons that belong to restricted categories, but are given an unrestricted status due to their design:
- B+T MP9-N with the stock extended (Submachine gun)

Use
If two suitable weapons are equipped and declared as being dual-wielded (or any equivalent term, such as "used akimbo", "two-weaponing", etc.), the following effects apply:
- Each weapon can be individually used to aim at a particular target, effectively allowing the dual-wielding character to use two weapons in the same turn.
- If one or both of these weapons is also equipped with a red dot sight, it is possible to combine this ability with Multiple targeting to be able to target up to 3 or even 4 different targets in a single turn!
- The dual-wielding character sustains a FT +1 malus; less accuracy is the price for using two weapons.
- Any Underbarrel accessories fitted to dual-wielded weapons cannot be used.
