The symbiont says it attaches at the forearm. It also says you can't wield a weapon or shield in that hand, but that you can make unarmed strikes with the hand. It's a little ambiguous and seems like it could go either way. Also would this work with Arcane Channeling for a duskblade? For example, use the free hand to cast and channel the spell through the tentacle whip. Harliquinn
