It's true, totemists have to wait for level 2. Psychic warriors get it from level 1, but only for a few hours per day.

My point of view is that when evaluating this as a low-level ability, flurry of blows, being limited to unarmed strikes and selected weapons with not-very-good stats, is comparable to natural attacks.


(also psst the kobold can use a class with sneak attack, pass it on)
