The 3.0 Drunken Master has an asterisked note below its table stating that Drunken Masters cannot attack more than five times per round (due to its +1 BAB, a monk/DM could get an Unarmed BAB above 15, giving it a 6th or possibly 7th attack, since iterative attacks are at -3, rather than -5). The Weapon Master also has full BAB, and allows attacks at -3, but has no note limiting its number of attacks.

The Sword and Fist FAQ over at the archived D&D accessories board discusses this limit to the Drunken Master's attacks, but there is no such limit discussed for the Weapon Master. Does this mean the Weapon Master does not have this limit?

Here is what the FAQ had:Q. Can I get six unarmed attacks with the Drunken Master if I'm a Monk 10/ Drunken Master 10?

A. No, the Drunken Master cannot attack more than 5 times per round, however your DM may rule differently if you apply feats such as Lightening Fists or Flurry of Blows. How about a Monk 10/Drunken Master 5/Weapon Master 5? The monk BAB + DM BAB = 12, but his total BAB is +17.

What about a Monk 8/Weapon Master 10/DM 2? He reaches +16 BAB even without the Drunken Master levels (and thus, should get a 6th iterative attack). Is he able to make a 6th attack at 18th level, but then is limited to 5 attacks when he picks up his first level of Drunken Master at 19th?

Okay, the next questions should be a little easier. At 5th level the Drunken Master gets the Drunken Rage ability. It states:You can rage just as a barbarian does, with a duration equal to your (new) Constitution modifier plus the number of drinks you have consumed... This ability supersedes the Strength and Constitution bonuses from Drink Like A Demon.The number of drinks referenced refers to the mentioned Drink Like a Demon ability.

1. How many times per day can the Drunken Master enter a Drunken Rage?
Is it unlimited? Must he drink to start the rage (as it is seemingly tied to Drink Like a Demon; and if so, it is basically unlimited)?

2. Would Drunken Rage meet the prerequisites for gaining the Snow Tiger Berserker Lodge feat from Unapproachable East? Note that neither the feat nor entrance into the Berserker Lodges requires one to be non-lawful.

3. In a similar vein, would the Drunken Rage ability qualify the Drunken Master for any PrC that has a prereq of rage?
