Tonight I made a Thri-Kreen character based on the info from the Monster Manual II.
In short, i want to give him dual Gythkas. According to pg 196, "a thri-kreen who has the multiweapon fighting feat can wield two gythkas at once as double weapons because of its four arms." I have given this character the following:
MultiDexterity (the equivalent of Ambidexterity)
MultiWeapon Fighting (the equivalent of Two-Weapon Fighting)
Assuming I make a 8th lvl character (5 lvls of fighter, +3 adjustment for nonpsionic thri-kreen), that would give him a total b.a.b. (not including any mods) of +7. At this point, according to the PHB, pg 125, if a character has ambidexterity feat (multidexterity in this case) and 2 weapon fighting feat (multiweapon fighting in this case) and the off-hand weapon is light (which the Gythka is considered being a double weapon) then my total penalties would be: -2/-2 (for the first Gythka) and
-2/-2 (for the 2nd Gythka).
Is this correct so far?
Also, assume I take this feat:
Improved Multidexterity (the equivalent of Improved Ambidexterity, which further reduced the penalty by 2)
Then, am I correct in assuming that my overall penalties would equal -0 -0 -0 -0? So, for the 8th lvl character list above, would his attacks be +7/+7 and +7/+7?
On a slightly different topic, lets say I wanted this Thri-kreen to wield a Gythka in 2 hands and 2 shields in his 2 other hands. Would these shield bonuses stack and what sort of feats would this character need to be able to do that?
Thanks,
