Flurry of Blows Question


Rules Questions


Do other to-hit bonuses stack on top of the Flurry of Blows BAB? At level 6, a Zen Archer has a BAB of +4,+4,-1 while using Flurry. Does the bonus to hit from DEX as an archer stack? Does Weapon Focus stack? I'm new to Pathfinder, so any help you can give will be greatly appreciated.

Flurry of Blows (Ex): Starting at 1st level, a monk can make a flurry of blows as a full-attack action. When doing so he may make one additional attack using any combination of unarmed strikes or attacks with a special monk weapon (kama, nunchaku, quarterstaff, sai, shuriken, and siangham) as if using the Two-Weapon Fighting feat (even if the monk does not meet the prerequisites for the feat). For the purpose of these attacks, the monk's base attack bonus from his monk class levels is equal to his monk level. For all other purposes, such as qualifying for a feat or a prestige class, the monk uses his normal base attack bonus.

Flurry of blows is your special full attack action. Any bonus that would apply to your normal attack routine applies to a Flurry of Blows. So, weapon focus with your bow, your Dex, any enhancement bonuses for a magic weapon, all of it adds up :)


Yes, they do. if you have 18 dex, weapon focus, and a +1 bow your attacks would be 10/10/5


As a level 6 Zen Archer, you'd have Zen Archery, so you'd have

+4/+4/-1 BAB + Wisdom modifier + Weapon Focus + Weapon enhancement/Masterwork bonus.

Then you might get more from buffs such as Inspire Courage.


Awesome guys! Thanks for the quick responses!
