1a) I'm assuming that the Flurry of Blows action should have the Attack trait. Is this correct?
1b) If my 3 actions in a turn are Stride, Flurry of Blows, Strike, what is my multiple attack penalty on the Strike action? Is it -5 or -10?
2) Assume I am wearing handwraps of mighty fists +1 for this question.
2a) This makes all unarmed attacks (including kicks and bites) into +1 weapons, correct?
3) Assume for these questions, in addition to handwraps of mighty fists +1, I am also wearing doubling rings.
3a) Do I get the benefit of the doubling rings so long as there is an expert-quality weapon in the gold ring hand and my other hand is empty?
3b) If I am wielding a two-handed weapon do my kicks and bites still work as +1 weapons?
3c) If I am wielding a 1-handed weapon in the gold ring hand and the other hand is free, do my kicks and bites still work as +1 weapons?
3d) Is it possible to wear a magic ring on your toes and have its effect function?
3e) If the answer to 3d is yes, can I wear the iron ring on my toe and turn any expert-quality 1-handed weapon in the gold ring hand into a +1 weapon (with the usual doubling rings restrictions)?
3f) If the answers to 3d and 3e are yes, is an attack with my ringless hand +1 or not?
3g) If the answer to 3d is yes, can I wear the iron ring on my toe and turn any expert-quality 2-handed weapon into a +1 weapon (with the usual doubling rings restrictions)?
1a) Nope, Flurry lets you make 2 Strikes which themselves have the attack trait.
1b) your attacks would be 0, -4, -8 (since fists are agile).
2)yes
3) doubling rings have nothing to do with unarmed strikes. I am confused by these questions.
1a) Then why don't those two Strikes take actions? Shouldn't Flurry of Blows say something more like:
"Make two unarmed attacks. ..." (note the small 'a' on "attacks", meaning "trying to hit an opponent" not "Action with the Attack trait".)
1b) Right, forgot about agile, thanks. So the Flurry counts as two attacks for the purposes of the multiple attack penalty rather than as 1 Attack action for those same purposes.
3) I was thinking that your fist would count as the weapon you're wielding if your hand is empty. Therefore if your fist has +1 potency, doubling rings can transfer that potency to the weapon in your other hand.
You're wearing fist wraps that give both hands a +1.
The doubling rings then suppresses the +1 on you left hand, take the +1 on your right hand, and replicate it to your left.
Net result:
Both fists have +1.

So you missed the part where I was holding a weapon in one hand, right?
Yiab wrote: So you missed the part where I was holding a weapon in one hand, right? I did, because the question was awkwardly worded. You had all of your assumptions up front for your questions. E.g. 3b you said, "If I am wielding a two-handed weapon..." whereas 3a says, "Do I get the benefit of the doubling rings..."
1A, Flurry is an activity as ruled in the book, it is an action that lets you make two actions, the two actions are the Strike action. This also means you can Flurry with a Monk weapon if you take Monastic Weaponry, this includes Shurikens.

Shuriken have the Monk Trait, which says you can use them with your Monk abilities.
I think that need cleaning up a bit (probably by removing the melee restriction from Monastic Weaponry)
