[QUOTE="enrious, post: 5669244, member: 2126"] How? He gets one shot at doing it. That's between you, he, and however you guys do stats. Being grappled lowers your AC but does not render you flatfooted. However, being pinned does. Sounds like both of you need to brush up on grappling in Pathfinder, because some things have changed and you'll trip yourself if you go by 3.5 memory. Only when flanking. Only when making one attack due to improved feint. Only on the first round of combat, assuming he wins initiative. I'll echo what Stream said and ask that you let me know when he can do some real damage. *shrug* You're among the few people I've seen suggest that rogues are better than fighters in combat. Someone at your table is doing it wrong if that's the case. Not an attack or anything of the like, but a decent fighter should run circles around him, so it's a question of the fighter, the rogue/monk not doing things right, or the DM for letting things happen that shouldn't. Y'know, as a DM, I sympathize. My players know that except for the magus, nothing from UM or UC is automatically allowed, because to be honest I don't think they're very well done and have a lot of issues currently. That said, as a DM, I have to wonder if you told him no BoXD or BoVD and yet he still played them, then he has learned from you that the DMs restrictions are toothless and he can get away with whatever he wants if he whines enough. Frankly, it doesn't sound like it's really a problem with him. It doesn't sound like it's a problem with you. It doesn't sound like it's a problem with the DM. And yet, it'd take all three of you to fix it. [/QUOTE]
