I'm guessing no, because a throw from a lock requires Judo (Throw) or a lock technique. Since the only valid targets for Clinch are the head, neck, or torso and Head Lock only defaults from Judo/Wrestling skills (not raw DX or ST) that means a throw from a lock is invalid for the striking hyper-specialist. Am I correct?
Thank you! EDIT: Changed striker > fighter. I'm not referring to the "Striker" advantage, I mean a fighter with striking Skills only (and the Clinch Perk). Last edited by SchmugginsTheDwarve; 07-18-2020 at 12:59 AM. |

A Striker can only hit not grab as its not a manipulator. So no Clinch or arm lock.

Oh! I was ambiguous with my term and shouldn't have used the word "striker". I meant a fighter with only striking skills (say, Brawling or Karate) and Clinch. Not a "Striker" as in the Advantage.

Ah!
Well Brawling at least lets you grapple but is not sophisticated enough for an Arm Lock. However you could try adding a Skill Adaptation perk, youll need GM permission but its not unbalanced.

Brawling does not let you Grapple, it is specifically a striking skill, not a grappling skill (Basic, p. 370, and Martial Arts, p. 55).

Its not a very good grappling skill but though it may not be a Grappling skill (term of art, per p. B370) but its used to grab an opponent, especially by animals. Also Technical Grappling gives it an Average trained ST progression. Its like saying Sumo Wrestling is not a Striking skill but can be used to hit or strike someone.
