5e Weapons

  • Any weapon you submit should not be inherently more powerful than existing official weapons. Please compare damage and cost to 5e SRD:Weapons.
  • Keep in mind that fighters and other classes can start with "any" nonmagical weapon they want. A high gp cost will not prevent a weapon from being overpowered.
  • If your weapon uses gunpowder but isn't modern, please add [[Category:Renaissance]] to the end of the page.
  • If your weapon has extraordinary or supernatural properties, it should considered a magical weapon instead. This remains true even if it doesn't explicitly use magic. (See 5e Magical Weapons.)
  • Remember that the properties Two-Handed and Heavy don't correlate to weight. A longbow after all has both properties, yet weighs a mere 2 lb.

For further guidance, please see Equipment Design (5e Guideline).
