Through some kind of dermination, possibly pure classes only, who get 3/4 BAB progression to get their 2nd APR at level 6 instead of 8 if the intent is to kinda keep levels a little lower for a while.

NWN combat just doesn't feel right with 1 APR and I don't think it would impact balance that greatly, they would still for example get their 2nd APR at -5 AB so it would be rather low, but still useful for PVE at the minimum and just...makes things FEEL better.

I think in general people shouldn't be afraid app for second attack on long and very melee-themed characters if level 8 is a new level 10. (I do not know yet if that same hard or not)
But if think about suggestion - main concern of course always will be CLERICS.
I mean, yes, for someone who is not good at clicking red good, new or bad at mechanics in general (there is nothing bad in it) of course second attack will be bless on any quest. But give that tool to anyone who is somewhat experienced...  STR rogues will start whack stronger, bards with greatswords and clerics stomping on everyone.
Only classes that really will benifit from rising BAB to +1 or giving second attack will be Monks and Druids. Monks is long-time discussed topic about them having bab+1, and druids just druids.

As option I would add suggestion to consider some perks(or classes) that will cut off some spell-powers and class features to trade that +1 BAB progression. Or second attack.
There is example of such classes in Pathfinder 1e such as Skald(Barb+Bard), Warpriest(fighter+cleric), Slayer(ranger+rogue)
