[QUOTE="Mistwell, post: 7287402, member: 2525"] Only because there is an explicit rule which says it's a two handed weapon lacking the versatile property. Because of the weight. I can easily show you one with two hands but I showed one hand BECAUSE WE'RE TALKING ABOUT DOING IT ONE HANDED. It doesn't need errata because IT IS THE RULES AS WRITTEN. It says the staff is included in the feat, and the staff says it can be used one handed, and you need another rule to have any issues beyond that, and we don't have any other rule. Of course the plain rule which nobody but you is confused about isn't errated with what he's already said! It does not remain open to interpretation. You're citing zero rules in your position. Your position is purely based on your own imagination about how things work and not any rule. That's not an interpretation. There is no gray area in the rule itself, you just don't like the rule. Actually it really does! They say so, directly. If you have an issue with this, run a home game. You really do have to use the rules as written, even if you think they are deeply flawed. It is in fact gospel for that particular game. Nobody is forcing you to run AL. It does in fact come with that restriction however. You probably should reconsider then, because you do not have the latitude you think you do for AL games. It's not a vague or inconsistent rule, it's just a rule you don't like because you don't imagine something working well that way. The rule itself is perfectly clear though. [/QUOTE]
