Shortblade Specialization

Shortblade Specialization is one of the racial traits granted to all gnome characters. It grants an expertise bonus while using One-Handed swords and daggers. When dual wielding different types of weapons, Shortblade Specialization is applied to each weapon individually, so that if you dual wield a One-Handed sword and an axe, only attacks made with the One-Handed sword benefit from Shortblade Specialization. When dual wielding two One-Handed swords, two daggers, or one One-Handed sword and one dagger, all of your attacks will benefit from Shortblade Specialization. For attacks that only use the mainhand weapon, such as a rogue's Sinister Strike, only your mainhand expertise matters.
