Quick-Flex

From Chronicles

Question: What, precisely, does Ambidexterity from a Quick-Flex do? Does it negate the penalties listed for using W.P. Paired by firing 2 guns at once as per page 327 RUE? I can find -zero- reference to ambidexterity in the RUE except where it states that certain OCC/RCCs get it as an ability for free. Ambidexterity as per RL is the ability to use both hands with close to if not equal facility. So, my question remains especially as -this- character also has Ambidexterity as to what, precisely, it does.

Answer: The following explains what is granted with the Quick-Flex's version of Ambidexterity. There are several types of Ambidexterity in the Rifts game, and thus each is slightly different.

For the Quick-Fex Ambidexterity provides the following:
WP Paired Weapons
+1 melee Attack

Note, WP Paired Weapons does not provide a bonus while using modern style firearms or guns. They would still be -2 on-hand, and -6 off-hand.
