Glancing hits under non-iterative attacks in Paizo Unbound


Rules Questions


One of the interesting aspects of the new alternative rules for Paizo Unbound included non-iterative attacks and the "glancing hit" mechanism for near misses (attacks that miss by under 5).

I have two questions in regards to this: Are you able to get glancing hits prior to getting additional attacks (ie, prior to a base attack of +6)? And second, glancing hit damage is half minimum damage, rounded down. Does that mean if your minimum damage is 1 (because of a lack of strength bonus and the like) that you deal no damage for a glancing hit?


I don't have unchained yet, but for question 2 unless there is a clause specifying otherwise I imagine it would follow the normal minimum damage rules and deal 1 point of non-lethal damage.
