[RotRL Spoiler!] Monster BAB multiple attacks?


Rules Questions


In Rise of the Rune lords AP #2, the party fights Aldern Foxglove, a Male dread ghast human aristocrat 4/rogue 3, who's attacks are listed as such'

(using PF conversion found on d20pfsrd)
Melee +1 war razor +10 (1d4+3/18-20), bite +4 (1d8+1 plus paralysis), claw +4 (1d6+1 plus paralysis and ghoul fever)

Question - Are these the total # of attacks he gets in a round with a full round attack action or does he also get another attack with the War Razor at +5 and possibly another claw attack?

And does this carry over to other monsters as well, say if the BAB of a monster is over +6 does it get another claw/bite/weapon attack the same way a PC would if their BAB is +6 (and every other time it's divisible as such).

Thanks

That is his full attack routine. On a standard action, he can only choose one of those attacks to make.

Unless he has racial HD, an aristocrat4/rogue3 does not have a +6 BAB, and thus does not get a second iterative attack.

A monster with iterative attacks can only take them with an actual weapon. Wielding a weapon often renders them unable to use one of their natural attacks. (e.g. creature with two claw attacks can only make one claw attack when attacking with a sword.)

Monsters do not get extra natural attacks from BAB, they can only get extra natural attacks by having another body part to use. (e.g. a monster with two claws does not get a third claw attack at +6 BAB, but instead would have to grow a third claw)


You might want to change the title of this thread so it says [RotRL SPOILER!] or something like that. It's kind of a big thing you're giving away.
