Question about Stunning Blow ability

Hey all, I just discovered today that Monks can use Stunning Blow and confirmed that it will work with any melee weapon, not just the Monk's fist. Is this working as intended? Because the two Monk kits' replacements for Stunning Blow, Frozen Fists and Flaming Fists, do NOT apply to weapons other than the Monk's fist. I sort of assumed that all three of these abilities would work the same, and that either they all should ONLY apply to the fist, or they all should apply to any melee weapon.

    I suppose the logic is that blow doesn't specify a weapon so you can blow someone without fisting them. Though I am also curious as to whether this is intentional.

    Phrasing, @nano, phrasing.

    well you can, but it's just rude.

    Note:
    Reread this... carefully.

    I can confirm this happens. You may want to move this thread into the bugs section.

    Haha, I leave for a few hours and come back to a flurry of innuendo. That's why I love this board!

    @elminster, I didn't put it in the bugs forum cause I was trying to confirm if it was WAI or not. In the Monk description, it specifies that the Monk's greatest skill is the ability to "stun an opponent with an UNARMED blow." so I think you're right and the bugs forum is where it belongs.

    After all this blowing and fisting are you sure you want to spread the bugs around?
