Athkatlan Triparate and Greater Flurry of Blows

Hello,
Anyone using AT in combo with Greater Flurry of Blows? I tried testing it out on the live Server with the 100% RCR, and I'm seeing some weird stuff in regard to the attack sequence. Anyone have actual information on how AT deals with flurry from Flurry of Blows (because the Character Sheet does not actually reflect the application of AT)?

My test toon has 4 attacks per round, but 6 attacks with Gr. Flurry. If AT is actually taking the lower 3 attacks and transforming that into AC/DMG, then my test toon gets 3 highest AB attacks, but...how are they then divided in terms of attack sequence? Is it 2/1 or 1/1/1?

Also, does the bugged extra attack still exist on BGTSCC, and is AT taking that into account somehow?

Thanks.

and does he really get an AC increase for each attack lost ?

Athkatlan Triparte counts Flurry attacks, even the bugged ones (which can't be fixed) and deducts as many attacks from your attack schedule as it needs so that you only have 3 attacks per round.

With flurries attack since they're positioned like this and since the bugged one is not existing as far as the game is concerned you'll get the first two attacks (ie 2 full AB) and the bugged one. Regarding in which flurry those attacks occur I imagine it will be 1/1/1.

That's kinda the point of the feat.

If you have 5 attacks + 2 with Gr. Flurry, when using AT, you'll get +4 AC (and lose 4 attacks).

But like I said in the OP, the Flurry sequence is weird!

And what about a dual wielding toons ?

Say with 2*5 attacks - are we speaking of a +7 AC increase ?
Or in with a dualwielding flurry build 2*7 an 11 AC increase ?

And that should also be an extra 11 dmg. Should be....

Athkatlan Triparte leaves you with 3 attacks no matter what. Flurry and TWF attacks are included and removed.

Aha! So that's 11 AC / DMG, but ONLY 3 attacks. Still cool...but not as cool as I had thought!

Should probably have a cap, a note : casting a spell deactivates all the combat styles.
