Monks cultivate a powerful inner force called ki. Feats which rely on the power of ki are called Ki Feats.
Some ki feats grant ki attacks that modify existing attacks. You can apply one ki attack to any melee attack which deals damage. You may not apply more than one ki attack or ki strike to any one attack. Ki attacks may not be combined with martial arts maneuvers or with touch attacks made as part of delivering a spell or esoteric ability.
Unless otherwise noted, a ki attack can only be made with an unarmed attack or a weapon with the Ki Focus special ability.
