Mi permetto di incollare un interessante intervento preso da un topic chiamato "il manuale del lottatore" sul forum americano.
"Creatures that are one size larger than you don't automatically succeed on checks made to escape your grapple." Awesome! So you can grapple anything now, regardless of their size! Not so fast. Remember that RAW, a prerequisite for grappling the target in the first place was that they need to be no more than one size category larger. What does that mean for the feat? It means that, strict RAW, it actually doesn't do anything because it refers to a rule that isn't in the book. So if your DM is a strict RAW kind of guy, this third mode is hands down, 100% the worst feat or feature in the book because it actually has zero function.
Of course, this is also such an obvious and glaring editing error that many will be willing to overlook it. RAI, it's pretty clear what is happening here; the feat lets you grapple big things. Indeed, in an earlier Alpha, the rules stated that big things automatically succeeded on grapple checks against smaller ones, and this feat is clearly in dialogue with those discontinued rules. So if you want to treat this feat RAI, the better wording would be - "You can now grapple creatures two size categories larger than you.". Yes, it's RAI. No, it's not RAW. But some DMs may allow that interpretation at their tables.
Sostanza: si riferisce a una regola presente nell'Alpha, poi rimossa. E' un evidente errore di editing, a questo punto.
Q79: in merito all'Action Surge
In aggiunta all'ultima nota di The Stroy, mi permetto di sottolineare (è retorico, ma può essere utile ai novizi) che Action Surge conferisce un'azione che, per chiunque sia dotato del privilegio "Extra Attack" si traduce in attacchi aggiuntivi. Per esempio, un guerriero di quinto livello (dotato di Extra Attack --> 2 attacchi con 1 azione), è in grado di compiere 4 attacchi in un turno, usando Action Surge (2 per l'azione base + 2 per l'azione extra ottenuta).
