2 claws attacks from monsters


Rules Questions


I just went through another thread that happen awhile ago, and somewhat had my question answered, buy it didn't seem very clear.

If a monster has an attack that says, like Skeleton perhaps, '2 claws +2 (1d4+2), does this mean that the Skeleton would make two separate attacks, one for each claw, or does this mean that the Skeleton makes one attack using both claws, and then would you roll damage for each claw or damage for one attack?


He can make up to two claw attacks for 1d4+2 damage each.


You would roll two attacks one for each claw thin damage for each attack that hits.


The exception is, I believe, the Deinonychus with its attack of Foreclaws +X. In that instance, the one of the Devs has clarified that both Foreclaws combine into a single attack.


Trikk and Vee'Cou are right, he gets two attacks. Remember, in order to make both of those claw attacks, it has to use a full attack action. In a standard action attack, he can only make one claw attack.

(If a monster has bite and 2 claws, he can choose to make his single attack as a bite, or a claw, but not more than one attack)

If a samurai wields a one handed weapon made out of obsidian, CAN that weapon even be made out of obsidian if it is going to be used as a two handed weapon? Or is it then considered a two handed weapon, ( which can't be made from obsidian).

It's still a one-handed weapon, but it is being wielded in two hands.

Thanks, but I kinda wondering if the weapon is more likely to break if wielded with two hands or not. Or should it just not be made of obsidian? Or does it not matter, because it is a one handed either way.
