Fiona - Grabs the enemy's head and smashes it against the wall, then swings her arm causing the enemy's head to slide across the wall with it's body still attached. Fiona then shouts out a victory screech which only ends up pissing off the other players[not]...

Pickup Object
http://i802.photobucket.com/albums/yy304/rundal/Vindictus%20Grab%20Guide/HoldObject.gif
How to
Use the grab button on an object that only your character is capable enough to carry(You'll be able to carry heavier objects as your STR grows). You can either throw it, normal attack with it, smash with it, or maybe all the choices if it doesn't fall apart by then. Use the Secondary weapon button to aim if you wish to throw it will accuracy.

~Tips~


You can only grab minion type training dummies, gnolls, and kobolds. You cannot grab anything else, even mini bosses and bosses.
Grab smash causes massive damage and has the ability to 1HKO certain monsters depending on your attack power.
(White Gnolls + Green Kobold will bare with your grab smash)
Grab smash would be the fastest method to kill an enemy
With enough stamina you can normal attack combo the enemy, grab, 2x normal grab attack, and then a grab smash.
Key = S (x4?) + W + S (x2) + D
Mouse = Left Click (x4?) + E + Left Click (x2) + Right Click
(Shorten the combo depending on the monster's hp or your stam)
Throwing the victim should be used to hit mobs or objects if your distance is limited for a smash.


Additional tip, if you want a nonstandard animation, a key with the right mouse button on it (similar to the one for E that shows when you can pick up an object) will appear to indicate you meet the conditions for a different animation.
Need an object to throw at a boss? Why not use it's minions before they're slaughtered by you or the boss itself.



Additional thanks to

Most of Fiona's animations are the same.

Default - 2 slaps/jabs/whatever you want to call them followed by a knee.
Wall + Pillar - It's not a tackle, it's an elbow to the gut.
Wall, Cliff, Mob - Same as Lann
Objects - Fiona throws the enemy, sort of like a suplex. Not sure how to describe it.

Also, "•Grab always 1HKO the victim except for 1 enemy which would be a green kobold. (Only applying CB monsters)" is false. The white Gnolls will not be OHKOs with grab unless your attack is high enough. Grab just has high damage output akin to smashes that makes it seem like an OHKO. I do belive the Cliff throw is always an OHKO though.

Additional tip, if you want a nonstandard animation, a key with the right mouse button on it (similar to the one for E that shows when you can pick up an object) will appear to indicate you meet the conditions for a different animation.
