Titan mauler and a quick question about oversized weapons.


Rules Questions


So without any of the specifics on why I'm asking the question, I know that by RAW a character cannot wield a weapon that requires more than two hands to wield, but can you use the weapon as an improvised weapon?

So can my Titan mauler with throw anything throw a huge greataxe, and if so could that same titan mauler with catch off guard use said huge greataxe in melee? (using improvised dmg and crit of course)

Improvised Weapons: "Sometimes objects not crafted to be weapons nonetheless see use in combat."

Since the huge greataxe was crafted to be a weapon, many people would consider it to be ineligible for use as an improvised weapon.

Scarab Sages

And yet, with sufficient strength, I could uproot a 20' tall tree and use it as an improvised weapon.

JJ is not one of those people.

Best case scenario, I'd let a player who didn't have Exotic Weapon (bastard sword) use a Large bastard sword as a big improvised weapon that dealt like 1d6 damage and had a normal threat range.

Also, the Monk of the Empty Hand treats normal weapons as improvised weapons.
