(Corrected notes about how Belm functioned in Baldur's Gate 2, noting that the extra weapon attack was specifically with the main-hand weapon and that its BG3 implementation does not grant the extra attack that BG1&2 granted with any off-hand weapon when dual wielded. To accurately implement the effect of BG2's Belm into BG3 equipping Belm would have to add an extra attack feature which stacked with other extra attack features.) |

- When Belm is equipped in the offhand, Perfectly Balanced Strike functions as an additional main-hand weapon attack. This attack uses all the stats and on-hit effects of the equipped main-hand weapon including adding your Ability Modifier to the damage without the need of Two-Weapon Fighting.
