Do claws replace the prerequisite of "improved unarmed strike" in order to get "improved grapple"? Granted I think I'll have to take both feats to get improved grapple, but I can hope. thanks Reshall

Reshall 04-02-07, 07:54 AM	Ahhh, missed that last part of that article. Thank you. I will have to wait for part 2 to see why they think they are different though.

Reshall 04-02-07, 05:29 PM	Actually, the character already has improved grab. I'm building a feral dwarf found in a desert oasis that is specializing in claws. Pretty much a leap in with pounce and try to tear whatever annoyed me to shreds. I was just wondering if something had said that with claws you could skip that feat so I could not take improved unarmed strike and replace it with close-quarters fighting. But alas, now I have to decide between both of those feats. It's probly better to avoid being grappled then grappled.
