None that I am aware of.
What is there to clarify anyways? The MM text seems clear enough...:confused:

It says that it can use all it heads for AoO's. It doesn't say how (2 AoO, butany head can use them. One AoO per head + the base two, two AoO's per head, etc).

Grammatically, the only option is that it gets two AoOs, each of which uses all heads.

Which is REALLY powerful for a CR 4 critter. That's why I wanted clarification. It can be read inseveral ways.

Thanks again for the responses!

If it could only use 1 head for an AoO, then the addition of the reminder text wouldn't make sense as it would be what you were limited to in the first place.

I think the only logical conclusion is that it attacks with all its heads for each AoO it gets. Notice how it can attack with all its heads as a standard action?:)
