Hmm, that second one was supposed to be Precise Shot. :S

I guess we're set with Point Blank Shot, Rapid Shot, Weapon Specialization, Combat Reflexes, Power Attack, and one more. But the melee choices she has aren't too inspiring. Cleave maybe?

How about Improved Sunder, to be different?

If she were a swordazon or axeazon, sure. But being a spearazon, I think Cleave's a better fit.

Well I don't mind Cleave, I was just thinking we could try something a little different. Since you both seem to prefer it, I'll the Working Draft with those feats.

Oh, I changed the everburning torch to a sunrod to afford to increase the longbow to a +4 Strength bonus.

Works for me. Are they done?

We still need flavor text and description. Why did we decide to not stack the unarmed strike with monk levels? It seems odd that it wouldn't stack.

Well it just kept it simpler. Also, the amazon's Unarmed Strike wasn't given a level, so what number would stack with the monk levels?

I suppose we could say "an amazon has an unarmed strike ability equal to an 1st level monk, this stacks with the unarmed strike from monk levels and other sources". Of course that means that an Amazon monk would have an unarmed strike 1 level above a normal monk, but that might make sense.

Yeah, I think it fits the whole "superior warrior" theme nicely.

I think it's better to keep it as the feat. They aren't particularly monkish (they seem more like fighters to me).

EDIT: well, if you'd both rather do that...

I'd be fine with just giving 'em Improved Unarmed Strike as a bonus feat. But if we give them the unarmed strike special attack, I'd like it to stack.
