I like how you get Quick Draw as a weapon art with this weapon, that's not something I have seen before. However, on the flip side of the other review, I feel like it may even be very slightly underpowered, as you're spending an Exotic on what is basically a Messer. Maybe let it be Weapon Finesse compatible?

hi! It seems to me an ovetpowered weapon,n since is regarded as a potentially one-handed weapon while sharing the same characteristics of a Falchion. I propose, at last, to reduce the crit to 19/20x2, and to considered it like a hand and a half exotic weapon.


a 2d4 with a 18-20x2 crit makes this weapon ovetpowered, considering that it can be used as a one handed weapon. The Falchion of the official Player'handbook shares the same chracteristics, but it is a two handed weapon!

The falchion is also a martial weapon. This one is exotic, and thus costs a feat to use. Numerically it is about even with a scythe, trading high crit damage (x4) to high crit range (18-20, but x2). As far as one-handed-ness... that's usually seen as an even trade, but again, exotic.
Also, it is hand and a half. It has the bastard sword mechanics. -- Eiji-kun (talk) 10:53, 16 December 2019 (UTC)
Being exotic, and thus requiring a feat in order to use properly, makes up for it. --Ghostwheel (talk) 14:21, 16 December 2019 (UTC)
