Elemental Fury and unarmed attacks

[Padawanchichi]

Hello there,

I usually see a lot of people and guides advice to take elemental fury monk ki power, however, when I see the RAW I don't understand how it can be applied to unarmed attacks.

Here's the raw about elemental fury :

Quote:

Elemental Fury (Su): A monk who selects this ki power must select one type of energy: acid, cold, electricity, or fire. Once this choice is made, it cannot be changed. The monk can expend 1 point from his ki pool as a swift action to imbue his natural attacks with this energy, causing them to deal 1d6 points of damage of the chosen type for a number of rounds equal to 1/2 his monk level. A monk must be at least 6th level before selecting this ki power.

It clearly says that it can only imbues natural attacks and not unarmed attacks.

Most threads and guides I've seen do not event talk about that, it's however a big point there as natural attacks are in no mean similar to unarmed attacks for a monks, needing to take feats such as feral combat training to be used with a flurry of blows.

Is there a faq I missed about elemental fury being usable on unarmed attacks?

Not sure what Elemental Flurry is but I assume this would apply.

Quote:

A monk's unarmed strike is treated as both a manufactured weapon and a natural weapon for the purpose of spells and effects that enhance or improve either manufactured weapons or natural weapons.

Oh you're absolutely right, I missed to read the section where monk's unarmed attacks seems to have a bit of a different ruling than other unarmed strikes.

Thank you.
