Bastard Sword Martial Melee Weapons Weapon Cost Damage Weight Properties Bastard Sword 8 gp 1d6 slashing 3 lb. Special, versatile (1d8) The middle ground between an arming sword and a longsword --sometimes called a "hand and a half sword"-- this blade's hilt is short enough to be used in one hand while also being long enough to warrant two hands if needed though it isn't as effective as a longsword. While wielding this weapon in one hand, it has the finesse property. A character has proficiency with bastard swords if they have proficiency with either longswords or shortswords. 4.50 (2 votes) Back to Main Page → 5e Homebrew → Equipment → Weapons
