PTD and handedness

[Gunnar]

Since handedness in profs no longer applies, how does this affect weapon usage for PTD skills?

For instance, swinging short sword and spear, may I now use both weapons for delivering the blow? (So striking with either the short sword or the spear) or does the prepare to die skill still have to be bound to one weapon? (The short sword/spear only).

Also what about activating another PTD on the other hand? Obviosly if its tied to one hand I would think you could activate a second slay or a disarm on the other but if unhanded can you have one PTD for each hand? Can you switch which is on which hand in either case?

Q. Since handedness in profs no longer applies, how does this affect weapon
usage for PTD skills?

For instance, swinging short sword and spear, may I now use both weapons for
delivering the blow? (So striking with either the short sword or the spear) or
does the prepare to die skill still have to be bound to one weapon? (The short
sword/spear only).

A: Yes, once you activate a PTD skill, you can deliver it with either hand and
should call it with each swing - from either hand.

Q. Also what about activating another PTD on the other hand? Obviosly if its
tied to one hand I would think you could activate a second slay or a disarm on
the other but if unhanded can you have one PTD for each hand? Can you switch
which is on which hand in either case?

A: As listed in the rulebook, if you activate another PTD skill, the first is
discarded. There is no "one PTD in one hand and another PTD in the other hand"
ability.
