If you mean "does my basic thr/sw add on this Innate Attack?", the answer is no. When you build a "magical weapon" ability from Innate Attack with Linked instead of Melee Attack (ST-Based), don't add the IA damage on your base weapon damage.

You should think of the Linked-based build exactly like a ordinary combination of two Innate Attacks with Linked -- if you shoot two IAs linked each other, the damage rolls of the two would be determined separately and your foe's DR would apply to them separately.

Additionally, you need Accessibility (Only while wielding magical sword) to represent the fact that your ability is to bestow a magical power on a sword you're holding. And such thing as "Link (ST), +10%" doesn't exist, so just don't try to buy it. Here's my take:

Sword Aura of Destruction: Crushing Attack 5d (No Knockback, -10%; Melee Attack, Reach 1, -25%; Chi, -10%; Accessibility, Only while wielding a magical sword, -40%; Link, sword, +20%) [9].

Notes: Your internal chi resonates with mana contained in a magical sword you're gripping and gives destructive force onto its attack. Make an attack roll normally, and if you hit you do 5d crushing at the same time as the normal sword damage. The foe's DR applies to each of these damages separately. (You can also even wield your chi itself as an insubstantial sword with damage 5d cr, holding your physical sword with the other hand. If you don't want this effect, change Link, sword, +20% to +10%.)

Yes, buying Melee Attack (ST-Based, +100%) is a standard method, but buying Link (weapon, +20%) instead is a permitted alternative. See FAQ5.2.1.

Or you could add Follow-up (Any Melee or weapon attack) +50% (as described in the Imbuements book, that is by far the best way to model this)

Ok tanks for you help.

Now another doubt, if this magic weapon have 3 form?

Actualy i thing in this manner

imagine if it form cost 100

Make a total cost of 300

But this 3 form can only use one per time, so how a figure out a modifiers of the item, for this condition.Remember if i can only on form it time i not use the total power of item aways, so i thing is a limitation

And more once time sorry by poor english!
