That thing with the rope and the giant literally has no rules associated with it though... that's just DM fiat. And I say that as someone who's done almost the exact same thing. Except in my case it was tripping a Kaiju-like monster in a city.

Depends on edition, there definitely was rulings for this in 3.5 (the edition that famously and infamously has a rule for everything), both in the Trapsmith class and as a Use Rope option, both use the Trip rules.

This exactly. We have only played 3.5, Pathfinder and Shadowrun in our group. So far. We keep making plans for a 5e campaign, but then someone's schedule changes. 🤷🏻‍♂️
