No, the EWP allows her to wield a bastard sword of the correct size one-handed instead of two-handed.

It doesn't change that the sword is Large and she is Medium, and therefore she has a –2 size penalty on her attacks with it, even when using it two-handed.

Whether she is using a longsword, bastard sword, or greatsword two-handed, if it is a Large weapon, she takes a –2 penalty.

Thank you for the reply. After examining the wording in the Weapon Size rules, I can see how they can be interpreted this way. I still feel, it's a little vague, so I've recommended this for the FAQ.

Thank you again for taking the time to help me out.


Amiri's stats give her the inappropriate size penalty for using a large bastard sword, but she should not take this penalty due to her Exotic Weapon Proficiency.

The Exotic Weapon Proficiency allows her to wield a bastard sword one-handed instead of two-handed, which means (according to the Weapon Size rules) she can wield a large bastard sword two-handed.

Therfore, the stats should read:

Melee Large bastard sword +5 (2d8+6/19-20)

and in Rage:

Melee Large bastard sword +7 (2d8+9/19-20)
