Description

The rapier is a light, thrusting sword popular among nobles and swashbucklers. Often associated with dueling and sport fighting, rapiers are nonetheless deadly in trained hands.

Notes

Only Milil and Valkur have the rapier as a Favored Weapon. Any Favored Soul or Cleric with the War domain following these deities will automatically receive the Martial weapon proficiency feat, regardless of their race.
This is the only medium sized weapon that benefits from the Precise strike and Weapon Finesse feats. Halflings and gnomes will not get this benefit since they must wield a rapier in both hands, unless they have Monkey Grip.
Despite being considered a light weapon for the purposes of Weapon Finesse, a rapier is still considered a medium weapon for the purposes of use as an off-hand weapon when dual-wielding, and can thus cause additional attack penalties.
The rapier does not provide damage bonuses with Power Attack (attack penalties still apply), unless when used by a small-sized character that does not have Monkey Grip.
