Grabbing Style


Rules Questions


Can a Tetori monk or maneuver master take this at first level like a regular monk could?


A regular monk, tetori monk, and a maneuver master monk can not take grabbing style at 1st level because they do not meet the prerequisite of +6 BAB.

Master of many styles could take grabbing style at 1st, as their bonus feat lets them ignore prerequisites other than elemental fist.

Prerequisite(s): Improved Grapple; base attack bonus +6, brawler's flurry class feature, or flurry of blows class feature.

It says or flurry of blows. Doesn't a regular monk count


Tetori and Maneuver Masters don't have Flurry, unfortunately, so they need to wait until BaB +6.


Then whats weird is grabbing drag has the Prerequisite(s): Grabbing Style, Improved Grapple; base attack bonus +8, brawler level 4th, or monk level 4th.


Interesting, I never noticed that it was improved grapple; (bab 6 or brawler flurry or flurry of blows).

I think the grabbing drag requires 4th level to make it some time before you can take that feat for a brawler or regular monk. Since flurry doesn't have any advancement at 4th they chose to just go with a straight level requirement.

Whats really weird, is you'd think grabbing style would be a perfect fit for a tetori.
