2 handed falcata


Rules Questions


Cheers all.

The light exotic weapon falcata have a crit worth the exotic feat imo. But: being a light weapon, it cannot be used 2 handed... Correct?

Taking -2 on attack rolls a character can use a larger than normal weapon. Correct?

So... Assuming both of the above statements are correct, it is possible to get a 1 handed (one size category bigger than light) which CAN be used 2 handed though -2 penalty on attackrolls are applied. Correct?

If the falcate is increased 2 sizes ( light -> 1H -> 2H ) is that -4 to attack? if possible at all?

What dmg die will the falcate have with each size increase?

Falcata is one-handed, not light.

Yup.

Falcata is a One-handed weapon.

Not a Light weapon.


Mistakes aside, wielding a large falcata will impose a -2 penalty to hit for a damage increase from 1d8 to 2d6.
Unless you have a means to offset the penalty (or a very high attack bonus); the malus outweighs the bonus though.
