[edit] Description

The rapier is a light, thrusting sword popular among nobles and swashbucklers. Often associated with dueling and sport fighting, rapiers are nonetheless deadly in trained hands.

The rapier mold requires 1 metal ingot. For the properties of exotic metals, see the Materials page.

[edit] Favored weapon

Only Milil and Valkur favor the rapier. Any favored soul or cleric w/ War domain following them will automatically receive the Martial weapon proficiency feat regardless of their race.

[edit] Weapon Finesse

This is the only medium sized weapon that benefits from Precise strike/Weapon Finesse feats. Halflings and gnomes will not get this benefit since they must wield a rapier in both hands, unless they have Monkey Grip.

Note: Despite being considered a light weapon for the purposes of weapon finesse, a Rapier is still considered a medium weapon for the purposes of use as an off-hand weapon when dual-wielding.
