WOIN Unarmed damage exploits - am I doing it right?

[MacD]

Hi,
as there are two different ways exploits increase unarmed damage - "increasing" (like warrior monk's iron fist) and "additional damage" (like warrior monk's elemental fist), I assume that "increasing" exploits are meant to be passives (and apply to every unarmed attack) und exploits with "additional" damage are tied to the "once per round" exploit rule.

Is this right?

The intention is that iron fist is continual, while elemental fist is an action. So yes, your interpretation of those two particular things is correct. There's no general "increasing" or "additional" terminology differentiation that should be extrapolated elsewhere though. They were just natural English words that I used.
