being able to touch something is very different from grappling it
not a grapple, have fun dragging anyone over anything that way. The only way is for you to move over it first"Grapple" requires 1 hand, and they are still capable of swinging a Glaive while grappled. So it's much more of a Grab at someone's arm or shirt.
No. It's litterally under the same rules.
It's a 5e Grapple. Which probably should be called "Grabbed".
If you want to rule it that way, sure.
so you can hit, grapple and shove something that is 5 feet away, sure. What that does and what the end result looks like is very different however, that includes the position of the two after the ‘attack’.
yes, that also applies for 2014. When you grapple someone, you are both occupying the same square(s), otherwise you are holding hands
So you get to pull them 5' when you grapple?
It was awesome... until a huge monster started chomping on small characters. That wasn't very fun for most characters...Grappling in 3.5 was awesome. If you were a player. If you were a DM having stupid barbarian win initiative, run past all the guards and grapple your BBEG wizard before he has a chance like my PC did, probably not as awesome.
What do you mean "anyone can do it"? It takes a FEAT. It's not "high level" but it IS specialty training.
It does? So it is not the standard rule that you can drag the grapplee at the full speed?
Drag at half speed is the default. Same rules as 2014, except grapple is a saving throw.
Ok, that's better.
