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?

Actually, it's a yes. "most circumstance bonuses" are in the list of exceptions to the no-stacking rule.

Not the way I read it. but if you say so, all the better for my character.

I was wondering about that ... it seemed logical, but I didn't see it mentioned anywhere. Is it explicitly stated?

Core Rulebook wrote:

Bonus Types: Usually, a bonus has a type that indicates
how the spell grants the bonus. The important aspect of
bonus types is that two bonuses of the same type don’t generally stack.
With the exception of dodge bonuses,
most circumstance bonuses, and racial bonuses, only the
better bonus of a given type works (see Combining Magical
Effects). The same principle applies to penalties—a
character taking two or more penalties of the same type
applies only the worst one, although most penalties have
no type and thus always stack. Bonuses without a type
always stack, unless they are from the same source.

Page 208. A somewhat obscure rule indeed. Took some searching to find it.

Boo, do not like. on the bright side, it's a definitive 'no, and here's why'. thanks for the help everyone ^_^

I played this scenario a few years ago, and finally decided to get back into the game. so I'm wondering, if I use a Mask of the Tiger's Eye, and my character is a half-orc, does the intimidation bonus stack? unless I'm mistaken, it doesn't cover all of his green skin, and it doesn't cover his mouth, and it doesn't cover his height, or weight, or voice....
