[QUOTE="jasin, post: 3352260, member: 7531"] The Graceful Edge feat from Dungeon #128 (the AoW adventure) lets you pick a one-handed slashing weapon and "If you do not wield a shield or weapon in your off-hand, you treat your chosen weapon as a light weapon." Does wielding a weapon two-handed count as wielding a weapon in your off-hand, or are they trying to exclude TWF? Does treating the weapon as light mean that you can't Power Attack with a longsword (even for -1/+1) if you're using it with Graceful Edge? The sunblade makes me ask similar questions: "This sword is the size of a bastard sword. However, a sun blade is wielded as if it were a short sword with respect to weight and ease of use. (In other words, the weapon appears to all viewers to be a bastard sword, and deals bastard sword damage, but the wielder feels and reacts as if the weapon were a short sword.) Any individual able to use either a bastard sword or a short sword with proficiency is proficient in the use of a sun blade. Likewise, Weapon Focus and Weapon Specialization in short sword and bastard sword apply equally, but the benefits of those feats do not stack." Does that mean you cannot Power Attack with a sunblade? Or can you choose to treat it either as a bastard sword or as a short sword? Or can you get the best of both worlds, for example using Weapon Finesse, but getting x1.5 Str to damage and Power Attacking two-handed for -1/+2? [/QUOTE]
