Elysian Bronze, am I doing it wrong?

Hey everyone.

Elysian Bronze:

First crafted in the deeps of time by the titans and bestowed as gifts to monster-slaying heroes among the lesser races, Elysian bronze retains the brazen coloration of its namesake but is as hard as steel. A weapon made of Elysian bronze adds a +1 bonus on weapon damage rolls against magical beasts and monstrous humanoids; this damage is multiplied on a critical hit. After a creature uses an Elysian bronze weapon to deal damage to a magical beast or monstrous humanoid, the wielder gains a +1 bonus on attack rolls against that specific creature type (for example, against chimeras, not all magical beasts) for the next 24 hours, or until the weapon deals damage to a different kind of magical beast or monstrous humanoid.

So If I have a set of Elysian Bronze arrows, does the +1 bonus (it seems non magical) stack with the +1 magical enhancement?

Also, do I apply the +20 gp cost to a bundle of 20 arrows?

Thanks!

You apply the 20 gp cost to each arrow individually and I'd say yes it stacks since it doesn't mention it being an enhancement bonus or anything.

I think you're overlooking one possible point. Given that this is a function of the weapon, I've generally seen it ruled that to get the +1-on-subsequent-hits rule, you need to use the same weapon. I can't hit something once with my EB dagger for an effective buff and then go to town with my now +6 greatsword.

Since you can't reuse arrows, this knocks out about half the usefulness of EB.

Hmm...any VOs want to chip in? Can I buy five EB arrows or do I have to buy all 20?
