Let's say i am an human ranger with natural weapon combat style.

I have improved unarmed strike feat and two claws attacks from aspect of the beast feat.

My questions:

When i use the unarmed attack, can i use both claws too (obviously as part of a full attack action)?

When i use unarmed attack with two fists, arms, legs or whatever, incurring in the penalty from two weapon fighting, am i still be able to use my two claws attacks?

This phrase(in monk's unarmed strike description) "This means that a monk may make unarmed strikes with his hands full." means that someone who is not a monk can't make unarmed attack with his hands full?

I have two simple questions about Shifter's Blessing and Master Shifter class features of the Shapeshifter ranger:

1.After reading this...

Form of the Bear: The Ranger’s muscles enlarge and tighten, and his facial features become more ursine. While in this form, the Ranger gains a +4 enhancement bonus to Strength, but his base speed becomes 20 feet.

...I don't understand why the base speed is fixed. Isn't better if it decrease or increase just like the Form of the Cat?
If i play a giant storm, who has a base speed of 50 feet, with Form of the Bear i'll lose 30 feet of speed.
On the other hand, if i play an halfling or a gnome, who have a base speed of 20 feet, with Form of the Bear i won't decrease my speed.
Do you think that's logical?

2.After reading this...

Form of the Otter [from Shifter's Blessing]: The Ranger’s hands and feet grow webs, and his body grows an oily fur that is water resistant. While in this form, the Ranger gains a swim speed of 30 feet and a +8 bonus on Swim checks.

Form of the Otter [from Master Shifter]: The Ranger’s hands and feet grow webs, and his body grows an oily fur that is water resistant. While in this form, the Ranger gains a swim speed of 60 feet and a +5 bonus on Swim checks. Alternatively, the Ranger can polymorph into the form of an otter or similar river mammal as if the caster of beast shape IV.

Why the bonus to swim skill from Shifter's Blessing with the Master Shifter decrease?
I think that +8 bonus on Swim checks refers to the racial bonus that every creature with a swim speed gain, so this bonus will be added to +5 bonus on Swim checks from Master Shifter, for a total of +13 bonus on Swim checks.
If it's so, i think it's better to erase this sentence "and a +8 on Swim checks" or to state from where this bonus comes from.

P.s. The speed problem exists for the Form of the otter too, i think it's more logical to set the swim speed basing on the base speed of the ranger.

P.124 - Beast Master's class skill Swim is "Swim(Wis)" and not "Swim(Str)" (the same on paizo prd)

Skirmisher ability states that whenever a scout moves more than 10 feet in a round and makes an attack action he can deal sneak attack damage.

Using Spring Attack or Shot on the Run feat is a full-round action that let you do an attack during your movement.

Attack action is a standard action that grant a melee or ranged attack.

So when you are using Spring Attack or Shot on the Run feat, the attack is part of the full-round action.

The question: is this attack still eligible to deal sneak damage with skirmisher ability, even if it's not granted by an attack action?

Probably i'll play a baaz draconian pc in a Dragonlance campaign and i would like to use Disguise Self magic to hide my appearance.
But Disguise Self state "You cannot change your creature type (although you can appear as another subtype)" and draconians are Dragon type.
Therefore am i not able to use Disguise Self to change my appearence in an Humanoid creature?
