So I had a few questions. First: I have a potential build that is Barbarian 4/Fist of the Forest 3/Frostrager 5/Bear Warrior 8. I was wondering how the unarmed damage bonuses from the Frostrager interact with existing unarmed damage. I know that FotF increases unarmed damage along the Monk's progression if you already have unarmed damage exceeding what FotF gives you. Would Frostrager's in-rage unarmed bonuses act similarly? If not, would the bonus from FotF look at my new base unarmed damage while raging and increase it accordingly? If a reference to it's actual base damage is needed, assume 20th level with Supreme Unarmed Attack; so 2d10.
Secondly: Same build. At level 20 I have BaB of +20, giving me four attacks. Add three from the two-weapon fighting chain for seven. Bear Warrior adds two claws and a bite. FotF adds a bite. Now, I know I can't use ALL of these attacks in one full attack. The way I figure it, I can use at least my four main-hand unarmed attacks (not sure about the off-hand attacks) by declaring them as a primary natural weapon. (Reference here:http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/rg/20070403a) I could then use one of my claws (the other claw would be used for my primary attacks) as a secondary attack and one of my bites as another secondary attack.
So:
What happens with my off-hand attacks in the above routine? If I can use my other claw as my off hand attacks, can I proceed to use one of my other two claws (rear paws) for my natural claw attack? Vice versa?
Can I opt not to use a claw as my primary weapon and declare my head as one for my unarmed attacks, since Chapter 8 of the PHB states that unarmed attacks can be made with punches, kicks, headbutts, etc, then use my two claws as secondary weapons along with my bite? Would I still need to declare an "off-hand" in order to use my off-hand attacks? Would headbutting as a bear interfere with my bite attack?
I can't use the bite from bear and the bite from FotF in the same full attack unless I have two mouths, correct?
I know it's a lot and probably a bit confusing, but that's why I had to ask in the first place. :P So any help will be greatly appreciated.
