2. Weight figures are for Medium weapons. A Small weapon weighs half as much, and a Large weapon weighs twice as much.
3. When two types are given, the weapon is both types if the entry specifies "and", either type (player's choice at time of attack) if the entry specifies "or", or each end of the double weapon is a different type if the entry specifies "/".
4. The hp value given is for Medium armor, weapons, and shields. Divide by 2 for each size category of the item smaller than Medium, or multiply it by 2 for each size category larger than Medium.
The Eastern Greatblades are long curved two-handed swords which are typically thought to come from the east, they are usually sold as objects of curiosity or as weapon to adventurers. They take many from and encompass multiple cultures and are not necessarily eastern in design or origin but still called such. It share many traits with the Greatsword, except less damaging and lighter.
However a creature with Exotic weapon proficiency gain the following Tactical Maneuvers when using an Eastern Greatblade:
Dashing Slash: If the wielder possess the Dash feat, it may halves the distance of it dash, but make a single attack at it highest attack bonus at the end of it.
Flowing Blade Stance: The wielder may enter a special stance as a swift action (this counts as a stance of the highest level maneuver your qualified for interacting with martial maneuvers and thus cannot be used in conjunction to one). In this stance the wielder is missed by an attack it may either take a 5-feet step or take an attack of opportunity against the striking creature (this does not stack with similar ability). If the attack that missed was an attack of opportunity the counter attack of opportunity is made with a +4 bonus to attack. You may use this ability a number of time per round equal to the number of attack granted by base attack bonus.
Wide Arc Draw: The first attack made after drawing an Eastern Greatblade is made against three adjacent square, roll a single attack roll and damage roll for all creatures involved.
