Specifically, I'm looking at Rapid Shot (PHB feat), Manyshot (PHB feat), and Ranged Precision (class ability of Order of the Bow Initiate from CompWarr). The main issues are whether the abilities listed as a standard attack can be the leadoff for a full attack, and whether Ranged Precision is itself a special kind of standard attack or just a damage modifier to bow attacks ("treat as a sneak attack in almost all ways" would seem to indicate the latter). Assume a Fighter 5/OBI 1 (no pun intended), BAB +6 and a total attack modifier of +0 (within the 30 ft range of Ranged Precision). It's clear you have the following attack options: standard attack with Ranged Precision, +0 to hit, +1d8 damage, 1 arrowstandard attack with Manyshot, -4 to hit, 2 arrowsfull attack, +0/-5 to hit, 2 arrows (-2/-2/-7 to hit, 3 arrows using Rapid Shot) The question is, are any of the following allowed combinations? Manyshot with Ranged Precision: standard attack, -4 to hit, 2 arrows with +1d8 damage to 1 arrow (since "precision-based damage" only adds to 1 arrow according to the Manyshot feat) full attack with Ranged Precision: +0/-5 to hit, 2 arrows (or -2/-2/-7 to hit, 3 arrows using Rapid Shot), +1d8 damage to each arrow full attack with Manyshot: -4/-5 to hit, 2+1=3 arrows total (or -6/-2/-7 to hit, 2+1+1=4 arrows total with Rapid Shot) full attack with Manyshot and Ranged Precision: -4/-5 to hit, 2+1=3 arrows total, +1d8 damage to 2 out of 3 of the arrows (or -6/-2/-7 to hit, 2+1+1=4 arrows, +1d8 damage to 3 out of 4 of the arrows, using Rapid Shot) I'm also assuming you can't squeeze out more than 4 shots a round with the above abilities (e.g. since Manyshot is a standard attack, you can't use it to make a double shot with every arrow in a full attack, just the leadoff attack). Is this correct?</blockquote>
