Weapon Masters/Trained by a Master and All-Out Attack(Double)

[vicky_molokh]

If you're doing, say, a triple Rapid Strike, with TbaM, you strike at -6/-6/-6. With AoA:Determined, you raise that to -2/-2/-2. With AoA:Double, you can do -6/-6/-6/-0. With AoA:Determined and a quad RS, you can get -5/-5/-5/-5.

Sometimes you might prefer one or the other.

The comparison I use is:

AoA: Determined and Rapid Strike triple: -2/-2/-2
AoA: Double and Rapid Strike: -0 and -3/-3 (or -3/-3 and -0)

The former is fine, but the latter is better if you need one especially well-aimed or especially Deceptive or whatever attack. My players tend to use that latter one to swamp defenses and follow it up with a really nasty aimed shot.
