Nope. Not stated in the rules, and it's been addressed by Crawford before: https://www.sageadvice.eu/2016/09/14/does-grappling-a-prone-target-make-you-prone/ You might ask "But if I'm wrestling them doesn't that mean I'm all on the ground hugging the creature?" and the answer is no. To...

First thing to keep in mind is that this guide is sort-of out of date, and the guide was made before Xanathar's, and before the Shield Bash ruling in the PHB errata. So good on you on proposing using some of the new stuff. The main advantage of Enlarge is less actually having to do with...

So I took a second read at Tortle (from the Tortle Package stand-alone supplement, right?), and I guess you get +2 STR and +1 WIS, but beyond that, I see little in the Tortle traits that would help you with that throw, or in general. The claws are ignored mostly because monk damage, and the...

Why don't you elaborate on your thinking on selecting tortle or goliath over human. I don't see anything wrong with it but it depends on what you're trying to accomplish by choosing those.

Not formally afaik. There's no "Choke out" rule set or mechanics. There are suffocation rules though. You could ask the GM to pull those out if you really want, but I'd probably just make it flavor on my attacks instead if I was going that route (assuming an appropriate creature).

Do you mean from this thread? https://web.archive.org/web/20150917000752/http://community.wizards.com/comment/51293186#comment-51293186 Since the current thread doesn't have any builds. The old thread linked there has builds but they may or may not be out of date. If you're new to D&D, the...

fofofofofofo? Anyhow, not really much to add. Read the guide, know the 5E rulebook, and make sure you and your GM are on the same wavelength on what you're doing. Grappler feat is still a trap, and the Shield Master feat's usefulness is a bit more limited by the current errata ruling saying...

Alas, the OP has been MIA for a long time. The guide won't be updated, unless someone creates a new thread. Sage Advice Compendium makes reference to it indirectly, since the core of this discussion about Shield Master is the main action triggering the bonus action, meaning you can only use...

Shouldn't the shove question be "is your target more than one size larger than you?" Looking at the PHB the Shove action seems to be limited to a creature one size larger than the shover.

Yeah... was going to say that that post was probably a backup of the old post on the WotC forum before it closed down. For Reference via archive: https://web.archive.org/web/20150917000752/http://community.wizards.com/comment/51293186#comment-51293186 I really appreciated this guide... still...
