Off hand bonus question

By Weaver3, in Descent: Journeys in the Dark

Hi Everyone,

I'm still pretty new to Descent, having only one game under my belt (with more to come!). I found the FAQ and errata online which helped me out with a bunch of questions and clarifications, however I have just one more about off hand bonuses.

Quite simply, do these off hand bonuses always apply or must the player be making an attack corresponding to the off hand weapon's type? For instance, if a hero is holding a crossbow in one hand and a dagger which grants an offhand bonus in the other, does the hero still gain additional damage to their crossbow from the offhand bonus?

Thanks!

For the off-hand bonus to apply the hero must be wielding two melee weapons...

Ha I opened up the rules and read the section again and it clearly states two melee weapons. Thanks :)
