I was looking at two-weapon fighting and realized that they put in text that allows you to make a second attack with extra attack! O5E was one attack only, which made using two weapons on a fighter great at 1st level, okay at 5th, and subpar at 11th+. However, due to the phrasing the fighter and marshal, which both get a 3rd attack with their off-hand weapon when they get Extra Attack again at 11th level. Here is the relevant phrasing
"If you have the Extra Attack feature, you can use your bonus action to make two attacks with the weapon in your off-hand."
My question is, was this intentional or not? I don't want to put in a bug report for it if the designers did it on purpose. It does seem a rather odd design choice though considering they specifically made Extra Attack work with it, but not all the way.
Does anyone know for sure what the designer's intent was?
