Weapon Finesse

Weapon Finesse [General]

You are especially skilled at using weapons that can benefit as much from dexterity as from strength.

Prerequisites: Base Attack Bonus +1.

Benefit: With a light weapon, rapier, whip or spiked chain made for a creature of your size category, you may use your dexterity modifier instead of your strength modifier on attack rolls. If you carry a shield, its armour check penalty applies to your attack rolls.

Special: A fighter may select Weapon Finesse as one of his fighter bonus feats (see page 38).

Natural Weapons are always considered light weapons.
