Can I use Ootbi's ranged precision as part of a manyshot? [Archive] - Wizards Community

I've got a sneaky suspicion that it doesnt though. Ideally, I'd like to make a manyshot at a target within 30ft and then add the precision damage from the OotBI too (i.e. 3 arrows in a manyshot plus ranged precision +2d8 would be 5d8 dmg in a single shot).

Can this be done?

is this the one from complete warrior? if so, then no you can't combine them because they are both seperate standard actions.

Yes, its from CW.

Hmm, you're right I suppose. Ugh (shakes head) was making a ranger/fighter/order of the bow initiate and now i think ootbi is quite crap really, so i need to restart my character...

Thanks or your help Kenkai ;)

If the DM'll let you try it, see if you can use the OotBI from 3.0. It never hurts to ask. The 3.0 OotBI is a good PrC, unlike that PoS they published in the CW.

Hey Seek....
Your PM mailbox is full, clean it out man!:D

And I think that your proposal is good except for the BAB requirement. You can't get it as a PrC ability until 15th level. The BAB prereq for a similar feat should at least be +15 BAB, if not more. Personally, I don't think it should be a feat, but if you can convince your DM, more power to you.

It should be cleaned out now. Also check out the new message I sent and tell me what you think.

My human Fighter 12/Ootb2/DWS1 just made his debut and I'm completely happy with him. The Ootb Ranged Precision isn't as good as Many Shot but he's got +30/+30/+25/+20 for 1d8+12 as a full round attack and I love how many feats he has. Many Shot is +24/+24/+24 for 1d8+12 each and Ranged Precision is +31 for 3d8+13 (within 30' so Precise Shot helps here). Since he's already got Greater Weapon Focus and since Improved Precise Shot is better than the Shape Shooting Feat I suspect I'll just keep taking DWS levels.
