Question about a big eidolon and a big weapon.


Pathfinder Society


I want to add a large evolution to my eidolon. As I understand it, the weapon with him will not grow. Under the rules I can buy a large version of weapons or not? Big greatsword, that he would have remained two-handed to large eidolon.

Yes, you can buy Large Weapons. But nothing bigger than Large.

thread necro!

where's the rule for this? That we can buy Large Weapons.

I mean, I KNOW we can, but I need to show it someone else...

The pricing for large weapons is on page 144 of the CRB. The entire CRB (with listed exceptions in the Guide) is legal for play in PFS.

This is also why you can’t buy weapons of huge or greater size. There’s no pricing information for them.

thanks!

Now I need to see if it applies to weapons not normally available, and only available on a CR.

It does not. You can only buy small and medium versions of items found on chronicle sheets.

Guide 10.0 page 37 wrote:
Characters can buy resized weapons and equipment from their Chronicle sheets and the approved equipment lists for their size so long as their size is Small or Medium. Thus, if a Chronicle sheet offers a Small PC the opportunity to purchase a +1 frost longsword, she can buy a Small +1 frost longsword.

Which leads to the related question : any good spells out there to make weapons bigger?

Permanently? No.

Most spells and effects that temporarily enlarge a creature also enlarge their weapons.

There is a debate about using Iron Lord's Transforming Slivers on a weapon while you are temporarily enlarged. It's a bit of a stretch: over the course of a night the item "grows or shrinks by one size category toward the size of the creature who applied the powder." So the pro-growth faction says "it doesn't say it can't be a temporary size increase."

Please don't try to do this in PFS :) It will only result in arguments at the table.

thanks for the rules references!

I'll pass this on to the person who asked me the question,,,
