[QUOTE="Empirate, post: 6083533, member: 78958"] Yeah, well, you're doing it wrong, to be frank. BAB gives a maximum of 4 attacks, at progressively weaker (by -5) attack bonuses. TWF gives 1 more attack at your highest attack bonus, but you take a penalty of -2 to all attacks taken that round. ITWF gives another attack at -5 on top of that, and GTWF gives still another attack at -10. So with these three feats, you're getting a maximum of 7 attacks. If you have natural weapons that don't take up your hands (a bite, tentacles etc.), you can use these in additional attacks. Likewise, some feats like Snap Kick and some other effects like Haste, Speed weapons etc., allow additional attacks. But off of your BAB and the two-weapon fighting tree, 7 attacks is all you get. I don't know where you got the idea that each of these feats gives a whole attack sequence: this is never implied anywhere. EDIT: Here's the relevant rules text: Note that this specifically spells out how many attacks you get from BAB (bolded part). Four is the maximum, at BAB of +16 or higher. E.g., you don't get a fifth attack even if your BAB is +21. I highlighted the important parts. The number of extra attacks you get from this feat tree is explicitly spelled out, no ambiguity.
