I'm working on it, I'm working on it.
Writing 'how to operate roleplaying games' sections are like having lemon juice dripped into your eyes though.
The 'Hit Orcus's minions with Orcus' feat is called Grievous Harm With a Body, btw.

OK, I just watched that, and...no. It looks just as bad as I imagined 'swinging Orcus like a bat' would look, and thats even giving it some bonus points because its got sci-fi elements instead of a fantasy look.
Then don't use it in your games. This is not a difficult concept.OK, I just watched that, and...no. It looks just as bad as I imagined 'swinging Orcus like a bat' would look, and thats even giving it some bonus points because its got sci-fi elements instead of a fantasy look.

I wouldn't but again, I asked earlier what "solves" the issue. If Fighters are that, hard pass.
Jesus Christ dude. Having an item on the menu doesn't mean it's gonna be forced down your throat.

No, but like I said, what solves this issue, for the most people?
A set of "special attacks" for Fighters? I bet 90% of players would be on board.
A Gish/Magus? I bet 90% of players would be on board.
"My fighter can parry Orcus, grab his weapon, swing him like a rag doll, then I run up his arm, slashing him to ribbons before I decapitate him"?
10%

And thats the thing.
The gulf between "Fighter with Special Moves and out of Combat functionality" and "RULES OF NATURE" is...vast.
