Weapon Familiarity Racial Trait/Exotic Weapon Proficiency Bugged
The Half-Orc racial trait 'Orc Weapon Familiarty' is not properly properly treating the Orcish Double Axe as a martial weapon, even though it's the only weapon in the game with 'Orc' in the title, effectively rendering the trait useless.

Additionally, both 'Double' weapons, the Dwarven Urgosh, and Gnome Hooked Hammer are unobtainable through Exotic Weapon Proficiency feat, and I can only assume the other races' Weapon Familiarity traits are similarly gimped. Four weapons in the game (more than 25% of the Exotic Weapons) have no way to obtain proficiency in them, despite merchants selling them left and right, and four races have their traits diminished in value as a result. (Also the double weapons show up as one-handed in the shop which is probably bugged as well).

I'm stuck sitting on my hands if I want to run the Double Axe Half-Orc Ranger concept I've been dreaming about since I saw Oleg sold one, or wasting feats on things that aren't the weapon I'd rather be using and replaying the game once it's fixed. But hey, the Gnomish Sling Staff works, so we've got that going for us.

Not as serious as the crash issues, granted but it's breaking my big dopey half-orc heart. *sniff*

Still not fixed in the latest update. I know, with WotR around the corner it is unlikely to be noticed at all, but it strikes me as quite negligent that this has not been corrected.

not true imo, i have just played a half-orc barbarian with double orc-axe and i was able to use it without problems, half-orcs can already use this exotic weapon with martial profency

Yeah, I don't know what he's on about. It was fixed. Not SOON after I originally made this post, but I definitely got to do my Half-Orc ranger double weapon play-through.

Definitely also functioning in WotR ... though I we have several new and exciting bugs in its place.

It was recently present in an updated version of Kingmaker - my Half-Orc mercenary with the orcish weapon familiarity trait and without exotic weapon proficiency had an untyped -4 penalty when using the orcish double axe. My conclusion was that this must be due to this bug but if you're saying it was fixed, there must have been another influence that I did not notice...
