Grapple frequency

[Phap]

How do I increase a ped's grapple frequency (less attacks, more grapple moves)?

Edit: Impossible

[Edgar Munsen]

yes you can give the character class to grappler and then give then less attack frequency via pedstat....

[Phap]

Are you just guessing? I tried that, doesn't work and instead Lefty and Vance now have the bear hug.

[Edgar Munsen]

  nope im not guess, i knew what you meant and more grapple frequency is imposible and the easiest thing is just what i said...

[Phap]

Haha uh yeah okay. :/

[deadpoolXYZ]

They use the bearhug because you changed their fighting class to "Grappler". I don't know if changing the fighting class to grappler increases the grapple frequency, but If you want their original grapple attacks then change it back to "Melee".

This is Lefty and Vance stat:

STAT_G_MELEE_A   FRAFFYCAN   20   100   12   100   0   0   0   40   50   20   60   45   14   65   30   60   Melee   0   1   100   1   0   0   20   100   20   10   10   10   15   100   80   60   50   70   50   90   16   10   unarmed   banbike   banbike   racer   50   twobyfour    -1   1   1_03   twobyfour    -1   1   1_03   twobyfour    -1   1   1_03   unarmed   -1   1   init   40   1    15

Since there isn't a "Grapple Frequency" stat in pedstats you can try with this:

The green number is the attack frequency and the red numbers are the grapple reversals (strikes and grapples). Try messing with them to see if they grapple more and hit less.

[Phap]

Um, the reversals aren't the ones I need. According to Rise, the grapple frequency is located in Bully.exe.

Grapple frequancy is done through C++ (may not be 100% true on this one but meh )

[Red Blaster]

Grapple frequency is either in the .cat files, or the .exe, as Rise said.

I did notice it depends on the style. For instance, G_Grappler_A and J_Grappler_A have very high grapple attempt frequencies compared to P_Grappler_A, G_Melee_A, and B_Striker_A.
