Burst Archery?

If a fighter with two weapons skill waited for an opening, and then went in with two attacks on the same opponent, I'd give DX bonus on both attacks, not just the first. Seems to fit naturally with the idea of waiting for an opening.

And I'd probably say the same for an archer whose natural DX was high enough to fire twice/turn.

Then this case, using the +1 DX from waiting to enable a second shot. Hmm. OK, if both shots against the same opponent, yes. It feels in the spirit of the rule and enables a cinematic kind of action.

If it turned out to be some kind of killer tactic then reconsider, but I doubt it would.
