Monk if the four winds / brawler

[Merm7th]

So if I have a monk of the for winds 1/brawler 4, would his elemental damage be 2d6 for having 5 effective levels in monk?

[Secret Wizard]

Nope. You only count as Monk 5 for feats and magic items. You are trying to advance a class feature in that case.

But if I'm brawler 1 regular monk 4 and I have Dragon Ferocity stating "A monk with this feat can use Elemental Fist as if he were a monk of the four winds." and the elemental fist feat it works fine then and the damage still scales right? Because then I'm qualifying for the damage scaling through a feat.

What if I'm in a campaign past lvl 20 and am 20 brawler and 5 regular monk with Dragon Ferocity and Elemental fist does the scaling continue?

[Bladelock]

Yes. Dragon Ferocity on a Brawler does allow for Elemental Fist damage to scale up.
