Grapple

Landion · Post by **Landion** » Thu Jul 19, 2012 4:44 pm

Grapple has been released for testing in a rather basic form.

Current information on grapple:

- You need at least 50 brawl skill to use this ability.

- It is based on the hand-to-hand combat system and requires at least some position, or other factors in order to obtain a bonus for a grapple to succeed.

- Wounds and certain effects such as being rooted provide a bonus.

- Hand-to-hand position greatly increases the bonus

- Attempting to grapple someone without factors to provide a bonus will fail.

- Mounted opponents can be grappled for a chance to dismount them!

- Offense is determined by your brawl and melee skill.

- Defense against grapple while mounted is based on riding, melee and brawl, otherwise it is based on dodge, melee and brawl.

- Currently a successful grapple will knock an opponent to the ground and do minor damage.

- A successfull grapple on an opponent who has hand-to-hand position on YOU will clear that opponent's position down to slight.

- Grapple does cause some RT based on success, but cannot be stacked as you cannot re-grapple someone already prone. (No stacking RT.)

This ability will be adjusted heavily, with additional effects and messaging added as time goes on.

A few adjustments have been made to the bonus structure, and this can now be done as an ambush attack, which provides an additional bonus.

This should work a bit better for the stealthy type looking to try to dismount someone.

If I didn't get an error message for grapple, I'd have got you at least once. Your luck won't last forever varmint! Yes...I said varmint.

Grapple 'should' be fixed. I think.

I'm sure Acarin will involve himself and all hell will break loose, but for now I've got three people I'm looking for. Like I told Sionyl oocly today, I'm not going to make you two miserable, but you have to die at least once. Sorry! (sorta)

I already died once. Does that mean I'm off the hook?
