Weapon masteries are something learned by the character, rather than a property of a weapon.2. Most, albeit not all, weapon masteries are not passive effects. Graze, Sap, and Vex are the only ones that are meaningfully passive. All of the others specifically involve giving the player a choice to do a thing or not do a thing. 4e properties are entirely passive. Anything active required feat or power investment.3. Sort of branching off from 1, only select classes get access to weapon masteries, and most classes cannot use them. A 4e character always benefits from any properties of weapons they use. Heck, it even works for weapons you aren't proficient with!</blockquote>
