Weapon Finesse and the Elven Curve Blade


Rules Questions

Silver Crusade

In the Core Rulebook the Weapon Finesse notes that the Elven Curve Blade qualifies, but the PRD is missing that. Which is correct?


core rulebook is correct


The Elven Curved Blade can, indeed, be used with Weapon Finesse.

Elven Curve Blade

Price 80 gp

Type exotic

Essentially a longer version of a scimitar, but with a thinner blade, the elven curve blade is exceptionally rare. You receive a +2 circumstance bonus to your CMD whenever a foe attempts to sunder your elven curve blade because of its flexible metal.

You can use the Weapon Finesse feat to apply your Dexterity modifier instead of your Strength modifier on attack rolls with an elven curve blade that is sized for you, even though it isn't a light weapon.

Emphasis mine.

The same text appears under PRD; Core Rulebook; Equipment; Weapons; Curved Blade, Eleven (couldn't get it to link directly to that entry).

It seem to just be an oversight/typo in the feat description.

Silver Crusade

Got it!
