Let me give you a quick rundown of how tavern brawler can really make throwing builds shine. The feat does something pretty interesting where it actually doubles up your strength bonus for both hitting and hurting enemies, which is already pretty wild when you think about it. If you're running around with maxed strength, you're looking at a solid +10 to both attack and damage rolls, and that's just the start of things.

What makes this really come together is how it plays with different character builds. Berserker barbarians are probably your best bet here since they can get those extra enraged throws, and if you're feeling fancy, eldritch knights can do some cool stuff with weapon bond to basically never run out of things to throw. Speaking of throwing stuff, there's this neat interaction where items like the ring of flinging or kushigo gloves trigger their effects twice, which is honestly just ridiculous when you see it in action.

The really nice part is you can grab this at level 4, and it just keeps getting better as you go. Throw in some giant strength potions later on, and you'll be hitting for some absolutely bonkers numbers especially if you manage to get your hands on something like nyrulna in the later parts of the game. If you're really trying to maximize everything, going barbarian/thief can push your damage numbers well over 150 per turn, which is pretty much enough to trivialize most encounters you'll run into.
