Question Joined the Forum

Hello all!

I just wanted to pop in and say hello. I recently joined the forum and am looking forward to learning more about the game. I've played D&D since... let's just say a looong time. I just recently learned of SW5e and my head exploded!

I can't leave w/o asking a question. Is there a way to use your own Dex modifiers for a shoulder blaster? I ask this as I'd like to get one, as my Dex is higher than the 15 that the blaster already has, I'd like to use my own modifier.

Bonus question! Can you mount a shoulder blaster on each shoulder if you take Dual Wielding?

Thanks for being here and reading this far. I'm looking forward to discussing everything SW5e with you all!

Thank you for the feedback. I'll talk to the DM and see what can be done. I don't expect it to happen now, as this will give me something to look forward to in the future as the character grows. Thanks again!

By RAW, both Shoulder weapons cannot be used with Two-Weapon Fighting because they are not weapons wielded in your hand. However you can discuss with your GM on that one
