Constructed Pugilist (Brawler) and Hook Fighter


Rules Questions


Hey guys,

So I got a build coming up but I want to know if it is working. When you are playing a Constructed Pugilist with the Grapnel Arm feature and the Hook Fighter feat, how does it works?

Because on one hand you got the capacity that said you can't make melee attack with your arm after you launch it, but on the other hand the feat says that you can use it as a weapon, because it is a grappling hook. So which one got the priority?

And another quick questions: if you do get the grapple going on, you can choose to automatically to make your target come closer to you, like any grapple, right?

I'd say you can attack with your Grappling Hook. It's my understanding that the Grapnel Arm description only prohibits attacks with the arm itself.

Rather than choosing, I believe you have to place your opponent adjacent to you.

If you successfully grapple a creature that is not adjacent to you, move that creature to an adjacent open space (if no space is available, your grapple fails).
