A war pick is a military one-handed melee weapon in the pick weapon group.[PH:218][MME:21]
A war pick has high crits, dealing an extra 1d8 damage at levels 1-10, 2d8 damage at levels 11-20, or 3d8 damage at level 21-30, on a critical hit. It is also a small and versatile weapon, so both Small and Medium characters may wield it two-handed to deal 1 extra damage.
Ardents, avengers, barbarians, battleminds, fighters, paladins, rangers, wardens, and warlords are proficient with all military melee weapons, including the war pick.
Other classes do not have proficiency with the war pick as a class trait, but any character can become proficient by taking a Weapon Proficiency feat.
