You get a +1 to Parry using a Rapier. If you hold a Rapier in your Off Hand do you still get the +1 to Parry?

Yes, it does The only penalty from using a rapier in your off hand is that you can't use that hand for something else. The +1 parry still applies. Source: Official Rules Forum Also, I second @aramis as another former SCA fencer. Makes total sense. |

You probably should. It's not significantly harder in Real Life to parry with the off hand rapier than it is with the good hand. (I was for 10 years a SCA Rapier fencer. Hope to be again.) |
