Master Hook-Slinger (4e Paragon Path)

Master Hook-Slinger

“

Let him charge. Makes them fall harder.

”

Prerequisite: Kor, Hook Trickster feat

To the Kor of Zendikar, hooks aren't just climbing tools. They are fearsome weapons, useful both to tear flesh and tangle legs. The hook's versatility made it a trademark weapon of the Kor, and only few will use other weapons in combat. The Master Hook-Slinger raises the hook to an even greater degree of power; it is no longer a mere weapon, it is an integral part of the combatant's attacks, mobility and defense. Be it knocking down the enemy while pulling yourself towards it or flinging around multiple creatures, you are a fearsome controller of the battlefield.
