If you have a half-dragon gestalt with ranger/scout on one side and monk on the other - and you take Beast strike (Dragon 355) ...

You can add claw damage to your unarmed strike.

So let's assume that you have level 7.

For skirmish, that is 2d6 damage.
For monk unarmed damage, you have 1d8
For claw damage, you have 1d4

Your BAB could be +7 lets assume, so +7/+2

So you have 2 hits in an iterative attack.

Lets add Barbarian 1 on the monk side to get pounce - so on a pounce attack, you attack twice.

Each hit would be unarmed damage + claw + skirmish? Would claw damage get skirmish as well (I'm guessing no but just confirming)

So you would have 1d8 (unarmed) + 1d4 (claw) + 2d6 (skirmish) for each attack?

Just trying to confirm.

There's nothing stopping claws from getting skirmish damage. However, for that, you'd need to actually use your claws. Your summation is accurate if you only use your unarmed strikes. When you take into account the possibility of using claws as secondary natural weapons in addition to the unarmed strikes, you get something that looks like this:

+7+STR UAS 1d8+1d4+2d6+STR/+2+STR UAS 1d8+1d4+2d6+STR/+2+STR Claw 1d4+2d6+.5STR/+2+STR Claw 1d4+2d6+.5STR

Yeah, you add the damage die of your strongest claw or slam. You still GET that claw or slam as an attack on a full round attack.

And you can get an extra attack by being a whirling frenzy barbarian. It allows for 3 unarmed strikes.
