1. if i hit Dancing/Raging Mongoose (while TWF) then use a strike that is a standard action single melee attack... do i still get extra attacks with each weapon?

2. what are you guys' favorite combos of boosts/strikes?

3. (so call me a liar) if i hit Burning Blade then use one of the Mountain Hammer strikes against a foe with fire reduction (not immunity) do i do full fire damage since the strike ignore damage reduction? or is the boost damage considered a separate entity from the rest of the strike's damage?

3. No, the Burning Blade damage is Energy damage, the creature does not have Fire Reduction but rather Fire Resistance.

Unless you have some errata/FAQ source, you are incorrect.

The maneuver says "After initiating this boost..." and there is no reference to any need to make a full attack however a single attack is implied by the phrase "additional attack(s)." As written, a Standard Action will suffice.
