I have a Barbarian/Black Blood Cultist grappling build planned out and I was wondering what the rules were for trying to force manacles onto an opponent. Also where the rules can be found. (Probably the PHB, but I can't find them.)

Thanks ahead of time for any help.

Oct 10, 2008 17:09:33 The Justicar's 'hog-tie' ability is what I remembered seeing. I guess I need 5 levels before I can start cuffing my opponents during a grapple. I might have to reevaluate my build Justicar or Black Blood Cultist???

Thanks again for the help Character Optimization Board rocks!!!

Oct 10, 2008 17:44:33 No problem. When you mentioned manacles, I immediately thought of the Justiciar prestige class. Ranger 3/Scout 2/Bloodhound 10/Justiciar 5 is one of my favorite simple builds, if underpowered by CharOp standards.

Plenty of that stuff in there.
