Brawler's Flurry with Two-Handed Thrower


Rules Questions


I'm not sure if the specific text of the class feature or the specific text of the feat wins out.

If a brawler is throwing two-handed monk weapons with brawler's flurry do they get 1 x str or 1.5 str on the damage?

Brawler's Flurry (Ex):
Starting at 2nd level, a brawler can make a brawler’s flurry as a full-attack action. When doing so, a brawler has the Two-Weapon Fighting feat when attacking with any combination of unarmed strikes, weapons from the close fighter weapon group, or weapons with the “monk” special feature. She does not need to use two different weapons to use this ability.

A brawler applies her full Strength modifier to her damage rolls for all attacks made with brawler’s flurry, whether the attacks are made with an off-hand weapon or a weapon wielded in both hands...

Two-Handed Thrower (Combat):
Benefit: Whenever you use two hands to throw a one-handed or two-handed weapon, you gain a bonus on damage rolls equal to 1-1/2 times your Strength bonus. Using two hands to throw any weapon requires only a standard action for you. If you also have the Quick Draw feat, you can throw two-handed weapons at your full normal rate of attacks..


I'm 99% sure that Flurry overrides Two-Handed Thrower.


Rules based answer: *shrug*

How I would rule it: 1x str while Flurry-ing.


Thirded.


Curses foiled again!

I wish there was some standard order of precedence (e.g. Magic item text > spell text > feat text > class ability text > core rules). Would make these questions easier.


Well, it totally would work if the flurry didn't specifically call out that it's always 1.0 Str mod regardless of being offhand or two-handed. Or if Two-Handed Thrower didn't say the extra damage came from using two hands. That's why Dragon Style works.
