If the Monk is using two Bracers of Dragon Fist (or one Dragon Fist and one Quivering Palm), can he/she/it/they still hold an Orb of Might in one hand to get the strength bonus? <br /><br />One more thing; can the monk use one normal one handed weapon and one bracer weapon?<br /><br />One more one more thing; the extended description of the Orb of Might in the token guide says the user gets +1 to damage, but does not mention +1 to hit.  Most other strength boosters mention the to hit bonus.  Is the OoM some sort of exception, or is this just an omission in the guide.

The monk has to have both hands free to use Flurry Blows. I traded my orb because of that exact rule

Darn.  I thought that might make up for playing a character that has to voluntarily lose three slots...  <br /><br />Not that monks don't rock or that it changes my character choice.

<br />If the Monk is using two Bracers of Dragon Fist (or one Dragon Fist and one Quivering Palm), can he/she/it/they still hold an Orb of Might in one hand to get the strength bonus? <br />

<br />Yes, the Monk can hold the Orb in his off hand.  The bracers only work with an open-hand attack, so he will not be able to attack with the second Bracer of the Dragon Fist.  If the monk is holding something in either hand, he cannot use Flurry of Blows (the two-handed attack).<br /><br />

<br />One more thing; can the monk use one normal one handed weapon and one bracer weapon?<br />

<br />Not at the same time.<br /><br />

<br />One more one more thing; the extended description of the Orb of Might in the token guide says the user gets +1 to damage, but does not mention +1 to hit.  Most other strength boosters mention the to hit bonus.  Is the OoM some sort of exception, or is this just an omission in the guide.<br />

<br />It must be an omission.  The OoM gives a strength boost, which in turn affects both melee to hit and melee damage.
There is no charge for awesomeness, or attractiveness.
