Egoists and multiple attacks (Psi)

med stud

First Post
Im creating a psion, and I wonder if Claws of the bear and Bite of the tiger can be used together in a full attack action (in a claw/claw/bite routine) with the feat multiweapon (from the MM)?
Or do I have to assign one of the attacks as a primary weapon and the other as a secondary weapon, no matter what?

If you have access to both powers, you should be able to take Multiattack feat. You'd still have to label one of the attacks as primary, though-- Multiattack only reduces the penalties for the secondary attacks to -2.
 

Remember, to make a claw/claw attack with claws of the bear power, you need Ambidexterity and 2-Weapon Fighting to reduce the penalties, otherwise, it's -4/-8 (light weapon in off-hand). See pg. 38 of the Psionics Handbook. The rules are cloudy with regard to adding the bite attack, and it doesn't mention the Multiattack Feat to reduce the base -5 attack penalty for "secondary" natural attacks. Personally, based on the PsiHB, I would call bite another off-hand attack. Requiring 3 feats for those powers to all drop to -2 to attack seems awfully expensive for using a couple decent psionic powers. In 3.5E, Ambi and 2-Weapon are combined (so I've read), so YMMV.
 

You only get one off-hand attack. So you could attack using claw/claw with iterative BAB and a bite as an offhand (light) weapon.

Or reverse it for bite/bite and claw as off hand.

TWF penalties apply.
