Gloves and bonuses; what works and what doesn't?

Hi folks,

So I'm looking at a pair of gloves currently, very shiny. They've got a +3 enchantment and an additional line for +3 to attack.

Now, I know for a fact that the +3 enchantment only applies to unarmed attacks (monks, typically).

But what about that +3 attack bonus? Would that only apply to unarmed attacks, or to any attack made with any weapon?

Some insight would be much appreciated!

Regards
M

EB and Attack bonus do not stack, only the higher of the two will apply. In this case, you get +3 to your attack rolls.

If you wield a weapon, you get nothing.

So any lines improving attacks on gloves apply ONLY to unarmed attacks? I'm a ranger, so I use weapons.

Some examples:
+3 Enchantment
+3 Attack Bonus
Damage Bonus: Piercing (1)
Damage Bonus: Fire (3)

None of these would apply to anything but unarmed attacks?

Yup.

But do put those up on the auction forum, you might get a hefty sum of gold out of them.

I saw them on the auction house, so sadly not viable ;)

Thanks for all the help!
