Half-orc Monk favored class bonus...


Rules Questions


I'm playing a Half-Orc Monk of the Sacred Mountain/Four Winds, and I was wondering if the Monk favored class option for Half-Orcs (gives +1 to CMD vs grapple, and +1/2 Stunning Fists per day, per level) would instead affect Elemental Fist from Four Winds which replaces Stunning Fist from the base Monk, or is this something that the DM should decide?

Thanks for the assistance.


Sadly no.

In a home game I would assume most GMs would let it fly, I know I would.

But if your asking the actual "Rule" then nope. (And if it's for PFS then No is what we have to go with)


That's unfortunate. Well even if he says no, the bonus CMD vs grapple is still useful. Thanks! :)

Scarab Sages

so if someone is playing a straight corebook half orc monk, it's still +1 cmd vs. grapple, and +1/2 stunning fists/day?

also, is that +1/2 a plus one for every two monk levels? and I'm guessing that's rounded down?


Correct Gurdek. Essentially, you'd have to take this favored class option twice to see any increase to your stunning fists.
