Sneak attack with two weapon fighting

[Cimmerian]

Hello guys, in my conan campaign setting there is a thieve who uses two weapon fighting (2 daggers) when he sneaks the damage of the sneak attack will calculate both daggers? (i mean 1d8 + 1d8 for the extra attack of the off hand dagger) or will be just one 1d8 from the first strike?thank you!

Sneak attack damage of +1d8 should be applied each time he hits (with either dagger).

In conan the rpg campaign setting it sais that thief is not profficient with two weapon fighting, but on this forum i saw you guys said that everyone is profficient to use two weapon fighting, so i guess that the thief of 2nd level also could use it with no penalty right?


Thank you SableWyvern for you reply

Not everybody is proficient with 2-weapon combat. So if your thief is a straight thief, then he would suffer 2-weapon combat non-proficiency penalties. This would not invalidate his ability to apply sneak attack damage to both attacks. However, as in my own case, I have a soldier1/thief 1 character, an he IS proficient with 2-weapon fighting from his soldier level. This could also work with a (barabarian, borderer, or nomad)/Thief combination. He also simply take the feat to gain the proficiency.

You are misled. Whilst pretty much every warrior style class does start with the two-weapon combat proficiency, the Thief doesn't.

Neither does the Noble or Scholar.

There is a Two Weapon Fighting Feat, which you need to negate the majority of the penalty for using 2 weapons, but any character can pick up two weapons and use them with minimal penalty if the off-hand weapon is light. A light off-hand weapon and the 2WF feat reduces all the penalty to zero.
