Master of Martial Arts

Requirements

• Unarmed Combat Skill 5
• Rank 1 only, 1 CC point or 3 GXP

Effects

Taking this benefit allows a character to apply existing skill ranks in a single type of Unarmed Combat, chosen at the time of purchase, to all Unarmed Combat skills. This effectively allows the fighter to qualify for other Unarmed Combat Fighting Styles.

For example, having Rank 5 in Unarmed Combat (Striking), the Master of Martial Arts benefit would allow the fighter to make Unarmed Combat (Grappling) attacks with the same level of skill. Of note, the use of Unarmed Combat (Natural Weapons) still requires actual Natural Weapons or appropriate equipment (such as Claw Gauntlets) to utilize, regardless of the fighter's skill level.
