Katanas

Post by Quidix » Wed Oct 30, 2019 10:45 pm

I think Katanas should once again become a Monk Weapon such that it gets UBAB, for three reasons:

1) Dual wield is no more: They are now medium weapons, and as such they cannot be dual-wielded on a dex build
2) Naginta is better for 2h: Naginata has similar stats (1d10, total crit impact), but is also a large weapon (+2 AB) and it does not require require the Exotic feat (as included in monk proficiency)
3) Monks are hardly too strong now: Monks were toned back heavily in other areas

I'd rather introduce more powerful monk specific katana recipes than move it back to an UBAB weapon.

Rejected.
