Message: <blockquote data-quote="(Psi)SeveredHead" data-source="post: 1642854" data-attributes="member: 1165">Let's use a scenario.We have a fighter/rogue who is dual-wielding. In his left hand is an adamantine dagger. In his right hand is a silver +1 wounding short sword.If the giant were metagaming he would break the short sword. (It's more dangerous, plus it has lower hardness.)It is not metagaming for the giant to just randomly smash a weapon, however. Even an Int 6 giant knows that breaking the pointy thing will stop the pointy thing from being jabbed into his leggy things.If a giant has Improved Sunder, there's no reason for it not to do this (provided it isn't prevented from doing this somehow). If the giant doesn't have this feat, three levels of barbarian should provide the necessary feat slot <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />(I wouldn't let the giant sunder items that it knows nothing about. It doesn't know what a metamagic rod is, nor a spell component pouch or a bag of holding...)Yes, it hoses the players but it's not Mordenkainen's disjunction - the giant can only smash one item per swing, rather than potentially destroy all of the fighter's items.</blockquote>
