still confused why a dire bear with 3 full-round natural attacks would bother to grab an opponent. at a -20 to cmb to maintain a grapple with his claws,....whats the point? since the bear does not have constrict, and it is not auto-damage in a new round if he maintains a hold on a pc....have any of you wondered or tried to run an encounter like this? my group was maintaining that 2 natural claw attacks + 2 suceessful grab rolls would be needed to have autodamage. seems like 3.5 rules to me.... ty for your help
What he should do is grab each turn but not maintain the grapple. Then his opponents will always be grappled on their turn.
ok,
what would be his(direbear) tactical advantage of grabbing him?ty for replying
And thus, the intelligent bearfolk spawned from the maws of the wilderness, cleverly grappling everything in their way...
haha,
I was always an outsider in my direbear tribe. "why grapple your foes when you can just shred them in comical fashion?!?!?" "I was born to grapple, thus I must leave....."
Perhaps one day you will be welcome in civilized society. Until then, keep grappling picknickers for their food.
do I get a +2 to grapple if my little bear buddy boo-boo is flanking?
Only if you devour him afterwards.
you can always get another boo-boo
nice!!!!
Uggh, less tactics, more humor. I can bearly bear the bore(bear?)dom.
haha,
so, a direbear who pins his opponent will have a tactical advantage of a pc who is -4 dex, + 4 to hit with his bite on prone, and ....?sry, i'm BEARly keeping this thread going!!
