Tiefling Bite Attack question


Rules Questions


So, I have a Tiefling Sword and Board Paladin with the bite attack (Maw and Claw).

Full attack round with sword and bite. Is the bite at full BAB and Strength modifier to damage?

Or is the bite at -5 BAB with half Strength modifier damage?

Thanks.


a natural attack with a manufactured weapon is usually a secondary attack so -5, etc...


Sigh. Thought so. Can't have it all.

Thanks.


Same question, I played yesterday in a game of pathfinder sociaty and i had a long sword masterwork and bite with weapon focus longsword

am lvl 2 and have bab 1 +2 str modifier

so if i know exactly I have longsword +5atk for 1d8+2dmg

and bite +3 1d6+2 on single attacks

if I would use my fullround action to attack with both how would that be? they said that bite counts as primary att and longsword would count as secondary? I thought that i could primary att with sword and then bite but don't know how the stats would be for the full round atk any help please ?

Oh and Forgot to say I have no 2 weapon fighting feat and am quite new to pnp

Primary/secondary only refers to natural attacks. If you were to attack with both longsword and bite the longsword would be made at normal bonuses but the bite would take a -5 and 1/2 str to damage. You don't need two weapon fighting when using natural attacks.


thank you so in my case the attack would look like this

longsword +5 1d8+2/bite-2 1d6+1?

Correct. Don't forget you can use the longsword two handed for an extra point of damage assuming you aren't using a shield.


yeah thank you for the anwser


how +5/-2? sounds more like +5/0

however claw/claw/bite would be +5/+5/+5 iirc...


His BAB is 1, str bonus of +2, masterwork longsword and weapon focus (longsword)

Mwk Longsword = 1(BAB)+1(WF)+1(mwk)+2(str) So +5

Bite = 1(BAB)+2(str)-5(secondary) So -2

attack would be +5 longsword, -2 Bite


ah, alright, musta missed that part.
