[QUOTE="Majoru Oakheart, post: 5316223, member: 5143"] The new Rules Compendium spells this out better. It explains that all characters have an at-will power called grab. It says in the entry for the power: "Although class powers and monster powers are usually more effective than [I]grab[/I] at locking the target down, the advantage of [I]grab[/I] is that anyone can use it, regardless of class. Grab At-Will Standard Action Melee touch Requirement: You must have a hand free. Target: One creature that is no more than one size category larger than you Attack: Strength vs Reflex Hit: You grab the target until the end of your next turn. You can end the grab as a free action. Sustain Minor: The grab persists until the end of your next turn." It then lists the grabbed condition as "While a creature is grabbed, it is immobilized." It's basically a matter of which power you are using. Either you use the Grab power that all classes have access to, or you use one of the Fighter powers which have a different target entry and therefore different restrictions and effects. [/QUOTE]
