what are the statistics for a standard katana? cost, damage etc
I can't find it anywhere in the dmg/phb.
Could someone give me those stats? if you can't could you at least give me the weapon's 'normal' equivalent?

Everyone knows katanas do 4d12 damage with a crit range of 15-20 at x4.


Geezzz.......

Nonsese - that's only the 3.5 'nerfed' version. Real katanas do instant death versus anything, cut through plate armor like its butter, and make the wielder instantly gain twelve points of Charisma.
 

Bah, people who played in 2e using Skills and Powers knew true power lay in the No-Dachi (in essence, a large katana). There was a power that bumped the damage die up to the next highest. No-dachis did d20 vs. large creatures, and unless you had one of those d30s (I did, my DM didn't), the next highest die was the d100. ;)
 



Every cool kid has a Quantum Katana made of...uhh...diamond-coated tungsten...with an edge made of...uhhh...Anti-matter...

Does 10d12 Force damage, critical 1-20/x10, and the target must succeed a fortitude save (DC 10 x damage dealt), or die. If they succeed, they take the cube of the base damage...


But anyway, a normal katana is a masterwork bastard sword.


Oh, by the way, the Quantum Katana, in the hands of a character with 22 strength, does a maximum of 2,001,636,000 damage if the target somehow succeeds the fortitude save (DC 12,600). Minimum of 4,112 if they succeed the minimum DC of 160.

All this talk of katanas is moot. Everybody knows that Excalibur when wielded by Storm Shadow is the most powerful blade in the universe.
