How do multiple natural attacks work?
The Pathfinder Core Rules state this about natural attacks: You do not receive additional natural attacks for a high base attack bonus. Instead, you receive additional attack rolls for multiple limb and body parts capable of making the attack (as noted by the race or ability that grants the attacks).
What is a secondary attack Pathfinder?
Secondary attacks are made using the creature’s Base Attack Bonus –5 and add only 1/2 the creature’s Strength bonus on Damage rolls. If a Creature has only one natural attack, it is always made using the creature’s full Base Attack Bonus and adds 1-1/2 the creature’s Strength bonus on Damage rolls.
Can a creature with a natural attack use a weapon?
Creatures with natural attacks and attacks made with weapons can use both as part of a full attack action (although a creature must forgo one natural attack, be it a claw, slam, or tentacle attack, for each weapon clutched in a limb that would otherwise make a natural attack).
