Net throw feat help, crossbow expert or sharpshooter
So for a character that uses a 1 handed weapon and net in trying to decide which feat is better for the net
Sharpshooter
Crossbow expert
Both would get rid of the disadvantage at different ranges
For sharpshooter can safely throw from 10-15 with no disadvantage
Helps with cover (which so far hasn't come up but could be nice)
Crossbow expert would allow no disadvantage from 5 feet. Would also allow attack with net and a bonus action crossbow shot (not to worried about bonus action shot cuz already have bonis action from class)
DM is letting reckless attack work with anything having thrown property
(This includes nets)
I am hitting level 4 barb and have one level fighter for +2 to hit

Re: Net throw feat help, crossbow expert or sharpshooter
What bonus action from class?
If you throw a net with your action, you don't get to make more attacks with the same action, even if you have Extra Attack. Crossbow Expert allow you to throw the net and shoot in the same turn. TWF doesn't work with net (ranged weapon, not melee), so you can't combine them, and other ways of getting BA attacks generally have requirements that also make them incompatible with net.

Re: Net throw feat help, crossbow expert or sharpshooter
Just turn the net into a peice of adventures gear. 13 Dex save to hit and keep the str to burst it.
what is the point of living if you can't deadlift?

Re: Net throw feat help, crossbow expert or sharpshooter
What about tavern brawler to keep proficiency and swing it like a melee weapon?

Re: Net throw feat help, crossbow expert or sharpshooter
I wouldn't really like that for few reasons
With my current bonuses I have +9 to hit and with one of the two feats ill have advantage to hit.
Net works great against Low Str targets and if its a dex save then I would need low strength and low dex targets.
Also cheesiness of once ebemy is caught in one net subsequent ones theyd have disadvantage on save.
Stunned condition would cause auto fail on net (we have a monk so this would come up often)
That and I like idea of recklessly throwing
Could be fun idea in future character though!!

Re: Net throw feat help, crossbow expert or sharpshooter
I should have added my feat. To the post
Quick hands
-You can add your proficiency bonus to any save or check an adventures item calls for.
-You can use your bonus action to use alchemist fire, acid, holy water, ball bearings, hunters trap, caltrops, grappling hooks, and nets.
I have it worded better somewhere. I need to find my notes.what is the point of living if you can't deadlift?
