A Throwing Handbook

[Tempestfury]

... Why exactly has no one made one it seems? I've been interested in making a throwing specialist for a while now, because I've seen quite a few characters specializing in throwing (Like Captain America, ), but I'm not exactly sure how and where to start. A lot of the other fighting styles - two weapon fighting, ubercharging, sword and board, archery to name a few - have got handbooks dedicated sorely to themselves. So how come throwing doesn't have one?

Through I think to make a throwing build its likely a good idea to pick up Bloodstorm Blade to get that 'Throw as a Melee attack' ability of their's...

[Jackinthegreen]

Yeah, Bloodstorm Blade is the big one when it comes to throwing because of both the versatility and power.  But there are other ways to do it like a Master Thrower build and such.

[Jackinthegreen]

Asking directly can lead to some inspiration for making a handbook.  Or even just a build index can be useful.

[Jackinthegreen]

Yup.  Sometimes the builds have tactics and such added with them, but sometimes it's just the build on its own.

Monster Manuel 4 was a pretty good handbook for throwing. Or at least, I've found no other use for it.

In seriousness though, Hulking Hurler should not be left out of any throwing handbook.

A couple of weapons of interest would include shields (with enchantments factored in), harpoons and shurikens (if your DM permits cheese)

[Fredgerd]

I don't know that one in specific, but there are a large number of cheese things you can do with them. The sizing enchantment can be cast on them, so thats one example.
