    [​IMG] I was wondering about the the weapon finesse finesse skill with regard to halflings equipping rapiers. Since the halfling must use the rapier as a two handed weapon, does the weapon finesse still apply? Will I get the Dex bonus to hit?

    I just tried it and it doesn't seem to work.
    I had a halfling fighter on lvl.1 with 17 in Dextery (at the beginning I also took the talent
    both handed)
    He had a chance to hit of 3
    On lvl.2 without weapon finesse he had a chance of 4.
    On lvl.2 with weapon finesse he had a chance of 4 either.
    That was all with a rapier.
    If I now take a short sword he have a chance of 5.

    Maybe I did something wrong,but I don't think it works.
