[ACG] Does Pummeling Style Work With All Weapons?

[Feragore]

Would it still work with the Cestus?

Quote:

...While wearing a cestus, you are considered armed and your unarmed attacks deal normal damage. If you are proficient with a cestus, your unarmed strikes may deal bludgeoning or piercing damage. Monks are proficient with the cestus...

That weapon has almost the same text as Improved Unarmed Strike with the exception of dealing nonlethal.

If you go strictly by RAW, I don't think so. It specifies you have to use an unarmed strike and you'd be attacking with a Cestus. I imagine most GMs wouldn't have a problem house ruling it though.

By raw no, cestus is not unarmed strike, nor is any close weapon. Only unarmed strike is unarmed strike. Given that i think its pretty stupid in general, consdering how there are fairly many weapons that modify unarmed strike but "are not considered unarmed strike"
