Manyshot and composite bows

[ChimericDream]

I was working on an NPC for a coming encounter, and I was wondering if the extra damage from a character's strength modifier for each arrow. Take a Composite Longbow (+2 mod) fired with the manyshot feat and a BAB of +11. Would the damage be 3d8+6 or 3d8+2? Based on the text: ("Both arrows use the same attack roll (with a -4 penalty) to determine success and deal damage normally"), I'd say they do, but then bonus damage such as sneak attack is only calculated for the first arrow, as is the extra damage from a crit.

I'd run the +2 mod as being on each arrow since crits/SA are specifically called out but the comp bow bonus isn't mentioned. It kinda fits with the "deals damage normally" text.

That's sort of how I was leaning, but I wanted a bit of validation to make sure I wasn't the only one who read it that way.

Thanks.
