Growing weapon enchantment [3.5]
Is there a weapon enchantment that lets you grow (or shrink it) in such a way that it can toggle between reach and close? How about one that gives you a 15' or longer reach?

Re: Growing weapon enchantment [3.5]
I believe there is an enchantment that changes a weapon between a sword and a spear, but I can't remember it for the life of me.
There is also a feat, either in PHB2 or Complete Adventurer called Short Haft, that lets you switch a weapon between close and reach with a swift action."And if you don't, the consequences will be dire!"
"What? They'll have three extra hit dice and a rend attack?"

There's a spear-only weapon property in MIC that lets you change your weapon between a shortspear, spear, and longspear. Don't remember the specifics, though.

Re: Growing weapon enchantment [3.5]
Stretch Weapon is a spell from PHB2 that adds five feet of reach onto a weapon. As a second level spell, it would cost 10800 gp to add it as a command word-activated enchantment onto a weapon.
So a +1 longspear that you could make into an extra-long spear would cost you 13,105 gp.
There are two exotic weapons with a natural 15' reach-- the rope dart and the meteor hammer. Both are on page 73 of Dragon Magazine #319. Two-handed, 1d4 damage. The former does piercing, the latter bludgeoning.Last edited by Blackjackg; 2009-06-18 at 11:59 AM.

Short Haft allows for a reach weapon to be used in close range. There's another one in the same book I think, Lunging Strike, that allows for an added 5 foot reach on one attack as a full round action.
