Furious Weapons and Sunder


Rules Questions

Silver Crusade

A bit of a quick question.

I've got a possible encounter coming up where a nightwalker might be involved. Now, these big nasty undead guys have a 3d6+15 attack, greater vital strike and greater sunder.

Now..even with my question of "Can I greater vital strike on my sunder?"

A larger question I have is, does the effective toughness of a furious weapon increase when the barbarian is holding it as its plus increases?


To you first question, yes. You use a sunder during an attack action in place of a melee attack. Vital strike says "when you use an attack action." Since a sunder is an attack action vital strike can apply.

Second question, also yes. "For every +1 of a magic weapon’s enhancement bonus adds +2 to its hardness and +10 to its hit points."

Since a furious weapon increases the enhancement bonus it also increases the above during a rage. There isn't anything to suggest otherwise.

I thought so, I just wanted to double check.

Thanks!
