Your best option is to select the Biped form, which giving you 2 claw (1d4+Str/primary attack) attacks for free. Unfortunately, first level limits you to possessing a maximum of 3 natural attack evolutions, but a reasonable DM would allow you to exchange the claws for the weaker tentacles that have a -5 to BAB when attacking. Either way, you will be only spending 1 evolution point on a tentacle. The other 2 would be best spent on increasing the tentacle(s) to d6s and gaining +2 natural armor.Don't forget that primary natural attacks uses full attack bonus and secondary ones are full attack bonus -5. In addition, if you make a weapon attack, all natural attacks are treated as secondary attacks. Assuming you have a bonus of +9/4 and 3 tentacles, your full attack would look like: +9 weapon, +4 weapon, +4 tentacle 1, +4 tentacle 2, +4 tentacle 3.Cons:* Lose at least 1 level of alchemist progression.* While melded with the eidolon, your Str, Dex and Con are replaced with your selected form. The Biped is 16/12/13 for first level.  These changes affect all rolls that are dependent upon 1 of those attributes. (Skills/Saves/etc)* While melded with the eidolon, you "lose" your armor and gain it's natural armor instead. The biped has an natural armor of 2.* Selecting any base form other than Biped will require you to spend 2 of your evolution points on arms. Otherwise you will be unable to cast spells, throw bombs, etc.Pros:* While melded with the eidolon, you gain a bunch of temp HP.* Mutagens still work if consumed after melding with the eidolon.* While melded with the eidolon, you gain Darkvision 60ft at level 1 and Evasion at levle 2.* All magic items, other than you armor, continue to function while melded.* Access to a handful of spells and cantrips.* While not melded with the eidolon, 3+Cha use per day of Summon "trap checker/heavy lifer/scout" Monster that lasts 1 min per level.</blockquote>
