We were using the "5E Weapon Handling" extension in the past. With the latest update we had to finally update the theme extension our group is using, which made this extension unusable and introduced the "new" FG built in version of 1-hand, 2-hand and offhand handling of weapons. (Our theme did override some parts of the actions, which kept the other extension in working order...)
When I set up my Hexblade Warlock without the "5E Weapon Handling" extension now, I noticed that offhand weapons keep their damage modifier if I set them to use charisma for attack and damage (because Hexblade).
Tested without any extensions as well. Also my characters don't have the two weapon fighting style enabled or something like that.
Of course I can work around it and even though my Warlock seems to switch this one weapon between offhand and main hand more often than most seem to do, I could still add i.e. a second line for that weapon...
Is this intended behaviour? Or should weapons with other used stats than "base" use the "normal" offhand rules for damage as well?
