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 large two-handed sword with a length of about seven feet, a zweihander has a longer and thinner blade compared to most greatsword. The sword features side blades which are used to guard and parry incoming attacks. A zweihander can be used as a martial weapon as is. However a wielder with exotic weapon proficiency with the zweihander threatens an extra 5 feet of reach during their turn and gains a +1 shield bonus to AC when wielding the zweihander. This shield bonus to AC stacks with the bonus granted by the Overbear feat.
