ape using style feats


Rules Questions


this is cuz of wild shape mind you.

would a MoMS monk with wild shape be able to do his normal unarmed full attack and then any of hte apes special attacks...like slam? or claw/bite if dire ape?


Yes because you can combine weapon attack or unarmed strikes with natural weapon attacks but you cannot use the same limbs. The natural weapon attacks suffer a -5 attack penalty and half strength damage since they become secondary attacks.

You can make attacks with natural weapons in combination with attacks made with a melee weapon and unarmed strikes, so long as a different limb is used for each attack. For example, you cannot make a claw attack and also use that hand to make attacks with a longsword. When you make additional attacks in this way, all of your natural attacks are treated as secondary natural attacks, using your base attack bonus minus 5 and adding only 1/2 of your Strength modif ier on damage rolls. Feats such as Two-Weapon Fighting and Multiattack (see the Pathfinder RPG Bestiary) can reduce these penalties.

There is a feat that lets you do this. it's mostly for monsterous races taking monk levels, but a druid could take advantage of it. I think it's called Feral Combat training.

Now the question of are you capabil of performing ku-fung in monkey form is really up to the DM. there aren't rules covering it.


the DM has ruled that i can use style feats so long as i can imitate the posture of a human, wich a ape can do, as well as the hand formations.

feral combat training would just allow me to use flurry of blows with natural attacks...i do not have flurry of blows as i am a master of many styles monk.
