Proficiency and runes


Skills, Feats, Equipment & Spells


Hello, Can a character use a weapon or wear an armor enhanced with a potency rune that is superior to his proficiency in armon or weapons?

For example, is a 20th level paladin able to use a +5 weapon if his weapon proficiency is only master and not legendary?

If not, are there ways to upgrade a proficiency?

Thanks


You can use them, wielding weapons of high quality and/or potency is in no way restricted by your abilities.


Of course a character would be able to use a weapon with a rune higher than their TEML: TEML only goes up to +3 and runes go up to +5.

I have seen nothing that says that items are skill-gated in the manner you're suggesting.
