    Piercing Unarmed Attacks?

    Claws are treated as slashing weapons, but IMC i'd allow it to be piercing.

    What polymorph options are open to Outsiders?

    It's just a simple question with a simple answer :)

    magic grappling items?

    Those Gloves add +5 to the check. You could also make an item that emulates the psionic "Adamant Grasp" power, that's a +10 bonus.

    Touch attacks while grappling

    The cleric has to succeed with a touch attack, just like usual. No bonusses no penalties, since it is the same as attacking with a light weapon and part of the casting.

    Size Large Feat???

    More basketball large men In "Conan the Destoyer", there's another basketball legend, "Wilt Chamberlain" playing another fighter, I haven't seen it for a long long time, but he's ENOURMOUS !!! Even though he plays a sort of hunchback bend-over character most of the time, he literally dwarves...

    Size Large Feat???

    Remember that being "Large" is not counted only with height, but also with width. A lot of creatures of about 8 ft height have "dwarflike" builds and thus become large in total size.

    Monks speed

    Both :) ... so yes he could run 200ft/round at lvl 6.

    Bracers of Striking

    But the rest of the description does ... "magical bonus" and "magic weapon/fang" clearly indicate an enhancement bonus

    Bracers of Striking

    I think it is most logical to let each bracer effect one appendage. So when you wear the bracers on your wrists, they effect your hands/elbows. In this case it would be very logical to treat the bracers like double weapons, because that what they are in effect. Letting them effect all unarmed...

    Bracers of Striking

    Impact (increased threat range), Impact (+2 damage), Ghost Touch bracers are very nice in combo with any amulet of mighty fists :) ... as soon as they are both +3 or equivalent it's a lot cheaper.

    Is grappling broke?

    No he shouldn't. An 8th level character alone should be killed by a CR 8 monster. But let's play a few rounds with a party of four. Basic fighter, wizard, cleric, rogue. Fighter is the one that gets attacked/grappled. With the Tyr's lousy initiative and +20 on attack, chances are 50% that he...

    Is grappling broke?

    Well ... I do have some time left ;) A monster with a grapple check +28 vs a player with a grapple check +23. When the monster initiates a grapple check, he has 69 % chance to win. When the player initiates a grapple check, he has 28 % chance to win. A monster with a grapple check +28 vs a...

    Is grappling broke?

    Fighters have problems but can still use the option to attack with a light weapon. They won't do as much damage, but can take the grappling damage if their real fighters. For arcane casters ... dimension door is Verbal only, so a concentration check vs DC 24 must be ok ... 9th level caster has...

    Does grappling take two free hands?

    A lot of the grapple rules are not explained properly in the PH. I assume that they didn't think many buffed characters would use the option to grapple with one appendage. That became the -20 rule that appeared in MM. What "Improved Grab" does is: - free grapple check after succesfull normal...

    Does grappling take two free hands?

    Polymorphed Expanded Fortified Animal Affinity'd psychic warrior grabbing the Huge Red Dragon ... sure :cool:

    Does grappling take two free hands?

    A part from kreynolds post above: So this option is open to all creatures. It isn't usefull for many characters, because unless your large or bigger and have improved grapple it costs you a lot without a lot of gain.

    Does grappling take two free hands?

    1) You can grapple with items in your hands, if you grapple with your whole body. I believe you get a -2 to your grapple checks when you have a shield strapped to your arm, though I can't find that errata/faq :( 2) If you grapple with one hand (taking -20) that hand would have to be free. 3) The...

    Is grappling broke?

    Yes I ment appendage ;) ... otherwise it would be scary ... something for the BoVD ??

    Is grappling broke?

    Definately NOT ... some things that improved grab has that improved grapple doesn't have: - automatically pull opponent into your space - grapple check does damage as with the appendix that triggers the improved grab - not taking -20 on initial grapple check but still holding the opponent in one...
