#1 edwin_su Oct 17, 2014 7:51:04	can you start unarmed and use your attack to make a grapple attempt, then draw a dagger or swordsword and make a offhand attack ?   I was wondering abut this becouse i had a rougue concept using the grappler feat focused on grabing a oponent then shanking them in the back with sneak attack as with the grapler feat you have advantage against the oponent you grapple.   but i am not sure there is a way for a rogue to do a grapple attempt and then still make another attcks as the gougue does not geain aditional attacks.

Yes you attack before the grapple, but Grappler is kinda a terrible feat (and a bit of a trap!), so it'd be to set up for the next turn.   Alternatively, just have an ally stand adjacent to the bad guy until you get him grappled for a round. Or, as Yunru said, just use "Shove" to push him to the ground!
