A Grapple Check is used in some situations in which a creature uses its own body to affect an opponent in a particular way. It is used for powers that restrain and grab opponents, pin, trip and shove. Most of these powers require an Opposed Grapple Check, with the attacker needing to exceed the defender's Grapple Check to succeed the attack.

The grapple check bonus is determined by the following equation:

Grapple Check Bonus = StrA + DexA + LVLM + Melee Weapon CT + Size Mod* + Bonuses (Feat, Item, Power, etc)
