[QUOTE="James McMurray, post: 180392, member: 743"] [B] Or Two weapon fighting It doesn't say this anywhere, and as such is a house rule. True, but in this case the monk is not fighting unarmed. Unless of course you are insinuating that he has nunchuku for hands? Quite so, but they are still not fighting unarmed. You are reading into it to mean that they cannot use their iterative attacks with their off hand. However, that's not what it says anywhere. True. I remember reading a blurb somewhere about holding feats, giving the example of the character picking up Iron Will at the last minute to make a save. However, it wasn't from the PHB, and I'm not sure where it was from exactly. So instead, you switch to Monk 9 / Drunken Master 10 / Fighter 1. At 18th level you acquire greater two-weapon fighting. Then at 20th level (1st level fighter) you get perfect two-weapon fighting. Granted, the Epic Level Handbook is not out, but we can probably assume that PTWF will be added to the fighter's list of bonus feats. In the end you've still got the same number of attacks, but you've got a higher bonus with them.[/b] [/QUOTE]
