If a player takes "Powerful build" as a Feat, does that mean they JUST take no penalty to using oversized weapons
OR
Do they treat weapons of "Large" size as if they were using S/M/L weapons that were medium sized for ALL situations:
Point of contention:
If a Fighter using two weapons wielding anything other but 2 Light weapons has a higher penalty:

If the weapon in the Off Hand is a Light Weapon, the Penalties to hit are -2/-2 which is better than the -4/-4
So if a character has Powerful Build and Two Weapon Fighting feat, if they use two Large Sized Light weapons, is that -4/-4 or -2/-2?

Powerful build is not a feat it's a physical racial trait half giants get. There's a feat called Racial Heritage feat.
Racial Heritage (Human)
The blood of a non-human ancestor flows in your veins.
FAQ
Racial Heritage: Can a human with this feat take levels in an archetype that requires you to be of a specific race?
Yes, the Racial Heritage feat allows you to qualify for archetypes that have the chosen race as a requirement, assuming you still meet all of the other requirements to take levels in the archetype.

Prerequisite: Human.
Benefit: Choose another humanoid race. You count as both human and that race for any effects related to race. For example, if you choose dwarf, you are considered both a human and a dwarf for the purpose of taking traits, feats, how spells and magic items affect you, and so on.
I'm not sure if you can take physical racial traits with this feat or is there a limit.
A good question would be what's the difference between Race Traits and Racial Traits.
