Grappling prestige classes?

[johnlocke90]

Are there any good ones? I have found that grappling class features tend to peak early and wanted to know if there are any good grappling prestige classes.

Student of War can take a Tactical Stance to add to their CMB/CMD, which also effectively grants free Improved Grapple/Overrun/Trip/Disarm at 8th level.

If you can use 3.5 content you could convert... I believe it is called Titan Mauler... It is nice for grappling.

IIRC: It makes you count as a larger size for Combat Maneuvers. It even scales as you level.

Interesting. I could also go for the stance that increases attack rolls and damage as well. Although no CMD increase that way.

Two levels of Horizon Walker, and pick Jungle as your mastered terrain. That'll get you a +4 on CMD vs. grapples and on Escape Artist checks (even if they have nothing to do with grappling).

Sadly, this doesn't make you any better at grapples that YOU initiate, just at avoiding other people's.
