So I have a Monk who I am now considering Multi-Classing into Barbarian (Beserker), but I can't seem to find an answer for this. My monk is Dex based so it calculates Martial Arts unarmed attacks as dex, does that mean I would not get bonus damage when in rage while fighting unarmed unless I use the strength stat? Or because unarmed attack is default a strength attack it counts?
Monks can use DEX or STR for unarmed attacks. Rage damage bonus and reckless can only be applied if you use your STR modifier when you attack. A good race for STR monks is Tortle since you can have an average DEX and it doesn't affect your AC.
