How are you wielding a Huge Greataxe?

[blackman311]

titan mauler lets you use a bigger weapon

[blackbloodtroll]

No. It doesn't.

Titan mauler only reduces the penalties on the weapons you can already will

The only way you can use a two-handed weapon that's bigger than you is with the variant tiefling ability from Blood of Fiends that lets you do so. It's also on a chart that you normally have to roll for.

The biggest Huge axe you can wield is a Huge dwarven waraxe that you've taken Exotic Weapon Proficiency: Dwarven Waraxe for, and you have to wield that as a two-handed weapon.

No.

That ability only removes penalties. The number of hands required never changes.

Y'know, a little clarification on that would have been amazing in the last game I played, where some jackass tiefling was wielding a Large adamantine greatsword like the Buster Sword.

Well, aside from the fact that a large creature can't wield a huge-sized, two-handed weapon, the character in question could still enchant his large-sized weapon with Impact (or Lead Blades), and there are a variety of spells that can enlarge him further, so what would the damage scale to, then?

1d12 => 3d6 => ??? => ???

My *guess* would be 4d6 => 6d6

[blackbloodtroll]

Well, you could say it require three hands to use, but that's not covered by the rules.

[ArmouredMonk13]

Or you can use Enlarge Person/Lead Blades/Impact to do the proper damage. I think it goes 1d12->2d6->3d6->4d6->5d6 and keeps going, but I could be wrong.

There's somewhere in the Bestiary that references increased damage for natural attacks when they go off the chart, and it basically says to double the dice damage for every two step increase.

Starting off with 1d12 for medium (which is basically like saying 2d6), and going to 3d6 large (which we know from the chart), should mean that the next step would be 4d6 (doubling the 2d6 from earlier), and the step after that should be 6d6 (doubling the 3d6 from earlier). If you had some way of going even one step further, it would then be 8d6, 12d6, 16d6...

You get the idea.
