[QUOTE="Sejs, post: 885225, member: 4910"] ...../boggle. Okay, your statements are totally contradictory here. One one hand you say that you don't care if a scimitar is equavelant to a rapier and that it shouldn't be finessable. Then you turn right around and say that if someone wants a curvy sword that he can finesse just get a rapier and call it a 'scimitar'. [i][u]They have the exact same stats.[/u][/i][u][/u] Medium size, martial weapons doing 1d6 damage, with an 18-20/x2 crit range. The sole differences are one is piercing, the other slashing, and one is finessable. If you made a curvy rapier a scimitar, what's the real difference? As for the opening up the gates for people wanting to finesse katanas and claymores next.... horsefeathers. Neither weapon has any precident that they should be finessable. One's a bastard sword, the other is a greatsword. That's like saying you shouldn't allow an ice-damage fireball spell without having it need the Energy Substitution feat because Orcs have a vulnerability to sunlight. [/QUOTE]
