Best weapon to use while grappled?

[Jacob Saltband]

What your the better weapons that can be used while grappled?

To me, this is the perfect use for armor spikes if I'm a two-handed fighter.

Well, the point of grappling someone is to prevent them from using "better" weapons. I would go with armor spikes or daggers, that's really as good as you can get I think

I went with an animal bane cestus for my grappler monk/ranger, simply because the most likely things to grapple him would also likely stuff him in their mouth.

Bite.

You can attack with any light or 1-handed weapon (with a -2 penalty). Just go to town with highest DPR weapon for your build and hope it either A) kills the grappler or B) force them to abandon grapple and move away out of self-preservation.

Otherwise they pin and crush tiny stabby creature on their next turn.

EDIT: oooooh, Bruno thought you were talking from grappled victim's perspective.

That's what Bruno get for thinking.

Theoretically, the only weapons you can't use while grappling are the two-handed ones. So first knee-jerk response would be the best one-handed weapon you can get.

But realistically, something that didn't take up one of your hands would be best (as you then don't take a negative on any subsequent grapple checks (to break free, reverse it, et al)) ... and if you can make it something you don't have to spend an action to draw, even better.

A natural weapon not tied to your hands is probably best, avoid the negative to grapple checks (so like Ciaran Barnes suggested, a bite... or perhaps the armor spikes also suggested)

Actually Bruno is brilliant because I was talking from vidtim perspective. ;-)

Thanks for all the advise.
