1. See Damage Increases by Size to calculate the damage for a weapon larger than Medium or smaller than Small.
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.
A sossun patta has a long and thick single-edged blade that pitches forward towards the point, the edge being concave near the hilt, but convex near the point. This shape distributes the weight in such a way that the weapon is capable of delivering a blow using the blade extension of a sword together with the momentum of an axe. It means that sossun pattas are used in powerful swings, with the added weight on the curved end being intended for devastating blows. Some models of this weapon has hand guards both above and below the grip.
A sossun patta is too large and top-heavy to use in one hand without special training; thus, it is an exotic weapon. A character with Exotic Weapon Proficiency can use a properly-sized sossun patta two-handed without penalty and one-handed with a -1 penalty to attack rolls.
