So, I'm working on making a Master of Many Styles monk, likely focusing on Boar Style and Crane Style. That's all fine and good, but there's a bit of wording I'd like to know about. For the style feat "Boar Style", it says:
Benefit: You can deal bludgeoning damage or slashing damage with your unarmed strikes—changing damage type is a free action. While using this style, once per round when you hit a single foe with two or more unarmed strikes, you can tear flesh. When you do, you deal 2d6 bleed damage with the attack.
For Crane Riposte, it says:
Benefit: You take only a –1 penalty on attack rolls for fighting defensively. Whenever you are fighting defensively, and you use Crane Wing to add a dodge bonus against an opponent, that opponent’s first attack that misses you provokes an attack of opportunity from you. In addition, when you deflect an attack using Crane Wing while taking the total defense action, you may make an attack of opportunity against that opponent (even though you could not normally do so while taking the total defense action).
So what I'm wondering is...Let's say the round has started up. The enemy attacks my character (who is in Crane Style), and its attack misses, prompting an AoO from Crane Style, which connects. My character's turn comes up next, and he/she hits with another unarmed strike. Would this prompt the 2d6 damage from Boar Style? I've hit a single enemy with two unarmed strikes in one round, so it seems like it would work fine, but the DM is iffy and wants a second opinion.
