First of all you should put a size limit on that, or you know so that you can't throw something you can't lift. Second of all this make a grapple a better trip, getting someone prone, damaging them and an ally. Third of all... well imagine if a overall vastly superior grappler try to pin or move you and botch it up, if you have this feat you can just end the grapple by throwing them like a little bitch. I feel like this should be an action in a grapple rather than an option whenever you succeed a check. Like drawing a weapon in a grapple, succeed? throw them. Failed? try again you have quick draw. In any case, throwing someone should be a base option in a grapple but it is not, maybe a variant rule could be made at some point. --[[User:Leziad|Leziad]] ([[User talk:Leziad|talk]]) 11:08, 23 October 2018 (MDT)

:The size limit is already part of grapple, and the weight limit is there (light load).  Second point is legit, I am unsure how to address that.  Third point... well, that would not be a successful grapple check to throw, that would be a failed check to pin.  You can't go back and change your mind after you already acted.  Is it not clear?

:Ah, I see, you think it's just part of grapple.  The intent is a new grapple option like the choice to pin or the choice to attack.

Concerns[edit]

First of all you should put a size limit on that, or you know so that you can't throw something you can't lift. Second of all this make a grapple a better trip, getting someone prone, damaging them and an ally. Third of all... well imagine if a overall vastly superior grappler try to pin or move you and botch it up, if you have this feat you can just end the grapple by throwing them like a little bitch. I feel like this should be an action in a grapple rather than an option whenever you succeed a check. Like drawing a weapon in a grapple, succeed? throw them. Failed? try again you have quick draw. In any case, throwing someone should be a base option in a grapple but it is not, maybe a variant rule could be made at some point. --Leziad (talk) 11:08, 23 October 2018 (MDT)

The size limit is already part of grapple, and the weight limit is there (light load). Second point is legit, I am unsure how to address that. Third point... well, that would not be a successful grapple check to throw, that would be a failed check to pin. You can't go back and change your mind after you already acted. Is it not clear?

It does totally work as a variant rule. -- Eiji-kun (talk) 01:33, 25 October 2018 (MDT)
