[QUOTE="Caliban, post: 49380, member: 284"] I don't think they state is as clearly as they could, but I believe the intent is that when you do a flurry of blows, the extra attack fom the flurry has to come from a different limb than the one you made your normal attacks with. So if you have a kama in one hand, you can either: A) Attack once with the kama, then the flurry attack is made with an unarmed strike (hand/foot/knee/etc.), B) Attack once with an unarmed strike, then flurry attack is made with either the kama [b]or[/b] a different limb than your first attack. (i.e. You punch them and then either whack with the kama [b]or[/b] knee them in the groin.) If you have a kama in both hands, you can either: A) Attack once with an unarmed strike (kick/knee/elbow/etc.) and then do the flurry attack with one of the kama's or a different limb for the unarmed strike. B) Attack once with a kama and then do the flurry attack with either the other kama, or with an unarmed strike. If you have multiple iterative attacks, they can all be made with the same limb/weapon or different limbs/weapons, but when you do a flurry, the extra attack from the flurry always comes from a different limb/weapon than the initial attack. This interpretation tries to take into account the rules for the flurry, the rules for the flurry with the monk weapons, and the text indicating that an unarmed strike can take the form of any type of unarmed attack, not just a punch.
