Which thrown weapon abilities stack here?


Rules Questions


Looking at a ninja with throwing weapons, there are several ways to potentially get extra attacks in a full attack.

Two weapon fighting (this does seem to allow a thrown weapon in each hand unless I misread it)

Rapid shot

The ninja's 2nd level power to spend 1 ki for an extra attack

Flurry of stars ninja talent for 2 extra shuriken

Now I realise you are racking up the penalties to hit at a great rate, but do these all stack?

E.g 8th level ninja has BAB +6, so base attacks +6/+1. Lets assume +3 from dex -> +9/+9/+4

Add TWF to throw a shuriken with each hand -> +7/+7/+2

Add Rapid shot -> +5/+5/+5/+0

1 ki point for extra attack -> +5/+5/+5/+5/+0

1 ki point for flurry of stars -> +3/+3/+3/+3/+3/+3/-2

Now obviously this requires being 10 feet from an opponent with terrible AC to be any use, but does it actually work to stack up that many attacks?

Liberty's Edge

TWF + Rapid Shot + 1 ki (for either ability) works

1 ki for extra attack and 1 ki for flurry of stars does not... because both require a swift action and you only get one of those.


OK, thanks
