While some prefer other polearm weapons for their reach capabilities, you focused on mastering the trident, a heavier weapon that requires training and dedication to perfect. When utilized correctly in battle, it can be a resourceful tool for offensive and defensive circumstances. You gain the following benefits:
- Increase your Strength by 1, to a max of 20.
- You can use a trident to attempt to disarm your enemy. You can forgo one of your attacks to catch with the trident's prongs a melee weapon from your enemy. This disarming ability counts as a Shove attack, and you gain advantage on the contested roll of the creature's wielding a one-handed weapon. On a success, the weapon drops and is thrown to a point of your choice within 10ft of the targeted creature.
- The distance you can throw a trident increases to 30/60. If you throw the trident, and hit with the ranged weapon attack, it must make a Dexterity save or be pinned to the ground. The DC is 8 + your Strength modifier + your proficiency bonus. On a failure, the target's restrained until it takes an action or forgoes one of its attacks to remove the trident. This impaling attack causes creatures that are flying to fall to the ground at the start of their next turn.
