THROWING NET, WEIGHTED: Used in a manner very similar
to the hooked throwing net, the weighted net does no damage
other than entanglement (although sadistic DMs might want
falling creatures to take 1-2 points of damage when entangled),
and for this reason is better suited than the hooked net for
taking weaker creatures relatively unharmed.

To escape from a weighted throwing net requires one round
with a knife or dagger and 1-2 rounds without such a tool. Since
the weighted throwing net doesn’t have any hooks to aid in the
entanglement of the victim, it does not require any waxing and
can be thrown more quickly (2 rounds instead of 3), since it is
not so difficult to handle.
