Message: <blockquote data-quote="Li Shenron" data-source="post: 8069341" data-attributes="member: 1465">Is it because unarmed strikes are not a weapon and sneak attacks require finess/ranged weapons?I think normally unarmed strikes are prevented to benefit from abilities that work on weapons mainly because the Monk gets additional unarmed strikes during the turn even beyond Extra Attack. But Sneak Attack is anyway limited to once per turn, so the Monk's Martial Arts and Flurry of Blows won't anyway get additional Sneak Attack bonuses.If that's how it works, I don't see a serious reason not to allow it. The only benefit is that if the Monk/Rogue first misses with the weapons attacks, she still has a chance for Sneak Attack damage with the extra unarmed strikes, and I don't think it's that huge benefit.</blockquote>
