Weapon Finesse

( Player's Handbook v.3.5, p. 102)

[Fighter Bonus Feat, General]

You are especially skilled at using weapons that can BENEFIT: as much from Dexterity as from Strength.

Prerequisite

Base attack bonus +1,

Required for

Aleval School (DrU) , Inlindl School (DrU) ,

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 armor 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.
