A light weapon is easier to use in one’s off hand than a [[One-Handed Weapon]] is, and it can be used while [[Grapple|grappling]]. A light weapon is used in one hand. Add the wielder’s [[Strength]] [[bonus]] (if any) to [[damage roll]]s for [[melee|melee attack]]s with a light weapon if it’s used in the primary hand, or one-half the wielder’s Strength bonus if it’s used in the off hand. Using two hands to wield a light weapon gives no advantage on damage; the Strength bonus applies as though the weapon were held in the wielder’s primary hand only.
 
 
 
An [[Unarmed_Attack|unarmed strike]] is always considered a light weapon.
