Natural Iterative Attacks?


Rules Questions

Liberty's Edge

I am building a summoner (level 8). The eidolon thus can have 4 natural attacks (say claw, claw, bite, gore). Its BAB is +6, indicating additional attacks. If I understand correctly, the iterative attacks do not apply. The eidolon would not get 4 attacks at full bonus and 4 attacks at -5. It just gets 4 attacks.


yup. iteratives only apply to weapons and unarmed strike, not natural attacks.
there's a feat that lets a monk use a natural attack in place of their (iterative) flurry of blows
(while not getting all natural attacks for free on top of the iteratives),
but that is a specific exception to rule...


If you give them a weapon, they can take all of their iterative attacks, THEN use their natural attacks, but doing so makes the natural attacks secondary, meaning they take a -5 to the attack roll and only do half strength damage.
