Martial weapons require extensive training to effectively use in combat. Martial [[Class]]es such as Barbarian, Fighter, Paladin, and Ranger have [[Proficiency]] with ''all'' martial weapons at Level 1. Otherwise, one can obtain martial proficiency by taking the appropriate [[Feat]] at Level 4. A creature's [[Race]] and Class may also grant it proficiency with specific types of martial weapons; see [[#Proficiencies granted by Race and Class|Proficiencies granted by Race and Class]] below. | Martial weapons require extensive training to effectively use in combat.

Simple weapons are easy to learn and use. Every [[Class]] except Druid, Wizard, and Sorcerer is proficient with ''all'' simple weapons at Level 1.

Objects that aren't actually weapons can nevertheless be used as Improvised Weapons. Note that this is not the same as using a non-weapon item that resembles a weapon strongly enough to allow it to be used as such.
