Unarmed Attack Proficiency and Benefits

Errata 1.0 – 2019-10-30

• For any class feature that improves the proficiency rank or grants the critical specialization effects access for simple weapons or a specific set of weapons, that ability also grants that benefit for unarmed attacks.
• (5th) Weapon Expertise: You’ve dedicated yourself to learning the intricacies of your weapons. Your proficiency ranks for simple, unarmed attack and martial weapons increases to expert. You gain access to the critical specialization effects of all simple and martial weapons when attacking your hunted prey.
• (7th) Weapon Specialisation: You’ve learned how to inflict greater injuries with the weapons you know best. You deal 2 additional damage with weapons and unarmed attacks in which you are an expert. This damage increases to 3 if you’re a master, and to 4 if you’re legendary.
• (13th) Weapon Mastery: You fully understand the intricacies of your weapons. Your proficiency ranks for simple, unarmed attacks and martial weapons increase to master.
• (15th) Greater Weapon Specialisation: Your damage from weapon specialization increases to 4 with weapons and unarmed attacks in which you’re an expert, 6 if you’re a master, and 8 if you’re legendary.

(9th) Nature’s Edge

Errata 1.0 – 2019-10-30

You always find the weak points in your foes’ defenses when they’re on unfavorable terrain. Enemies are flat-footed to you if they’re in natural difficult terrain, or in difficult terrain resulting from a snare.

(15th) Improved Evasion

Errata 1.0 – 2019-10-30

Your ability to elude danger is matchless. Your proficiency rank for Reflex saves increases to legendary. When you roll a critical failure on a Reflex save, you get a failure instead. When you roll a failure on a Reflex save against a damaging effect, you take half damage.
