Both arrows use the same attack roll (with a -4 penalty) to determine success and deal damage normally (but see Special).For every five points of base attack bonus you have above +6, you may add one additional arrow to this attack, to a maximum of four arrows at a base attack bonus of +16. However, each arrow after the second adds a cumulative -2 penalty on the attack roll (for a total of -6 on the third arrow and -8 on the fourth).Damage reduction and other resistances apply separately against each arrow fired.Special: Regardless of the number of arrows you fire, you apply precision-based damage (such as sneak attack damage) only once. If you score a critical hit, only the first arrow fired deals critical damage; all others deal regular damage.A fighter may select Manyshot as one of his fighter bonus feats.Old version of Manyshot, as found in ELH:Manyshot [General]You can fire multiple arrows as a single attack against a nearby target.Prerequisites: Dex 15, Point Blank Shot, Rapid Shot, base attack bonus +6.Benefit: As a standard action, you may fire two arrows at a single opponent within 30 feet.
