Weapon Focus (Unarmed Strike / Man Catcher) + Weapon Focus (Grapple)


Rules Questions

Sovereign Court

Let's say that I have taken the "Weapon Focus" feat twice, for Grapple and the weapon which I initiate the Grapple with.

Do I have a +2 to make my grapple attack now or is it still 1?


You can't take Weapon Focus with grapple. It's a combat maneuver, not a weapon. Weapon Focus increases your attack bonus. Grapple uses CMB, not attack bonus.

Yes, you can.

Choose one type of weapon. You can also choose unarmed strike or grapple (or ray, if you are a spellcaster) as your weapon for the purposes of this feat.

To the OP, you only have a +1. Weapon Focus: Weapon applies to weapon attacks, not grapples.
