Why Can't I Grapple?

[Goodyear]

I'm sorry, but playing my monk is boring without being able to bear hug everything to death. But seriously, why is grapple not an action I can take?

It's probably an animation issue (hard to sync up with different size and anatomy creatures).

Step 1: delete/respec char
Step 2: get a load of sylvan sorcerer with dogs/wolfes companions who summons massive amounts of dogs and wolves. and watch every enemy unable to do s*** (trip may happen, just the moment he stands up, provoking attacks)
Step 3: ???
Step 4: Profit!

On later levels there are so many creatures in the battle, that even level 1 dogs make successful trip attempts (natural 20)

Trip isn't as fun though. I play PnP pPathfinder, and my favourite character would grapple two guys at once, wearing a shirt that would burst into flames any time I did so. I think Kraken Style is honestly my favourite feat in PnP games.

Oh well, I'm sad now.

Honestly Trip is insanely overpowered in this game because it makes the AI not even try to do anything except immediately stand up which provokes AoOs.

It's not a complete disable more powerful than Stun in the tabletop game, but here it's literally "you die" and that is gamebreaking.

I'm not looking for overpowered, I'm looking for fun
