"Activation: Usually a character benefits from a magic weapon in the same way a character benefits from a mundane weapon—by wielding (attacking with) it. If a weapon has a special ability that the user needs to activate, then the user usually needs to utter a command word (a standard action). A character can activate the special abilities of 50 pieces of ammunition at the same time, assuming each piece has identical abilities."

I see nothing about being only able to command one at a time.

Oh wait, I am a moron, I forgot the descriptions for those flaming, icy, whatevers say "until another command is given".

So for example, if I had a +1 flaming, icy, shock sword; I cannot command all of them to activate at the same time. (Like my character says "I command all my weapon enhancements to activate!")

The description for activating a magic weapon (From Paizo PRD).

A friend of mine wants to have a bow with the following qualities:

+1
Shock (+1)
Shocking Burst (+2)

Is this allowed? I would think that shocking burst would overwrite shock or it was one or the other.

So I'm playing as a magus in my friend's campaign and I end up in a gladiatorial arena without any weapons or armor. I don't have spell recall yet, so I when my turn starts in combat I used my arcana pool ability to enhance my fists and my GM said that my arcane pool ability only affects one fist (I had the two weapon fighting feat, so I thought I could punch enemies for full round actions). I'm relatively new to Pathfinder, so I just went with what my GM said. I just want to confirm it, so does the arcane pool ability apply to only one fist, or would it apply to both fists.
