losu 05-23-04, 11:21 AM	hi all;) im havin douts to the beholders full attack, its says EYE RAYS+9 AND BITE. does it mean it only can fire one ray and one bite as a full round attack? if so the 3.5 beholder is pretty lame!dont you think?pls help me clarify this! tanx:D

Thus strategically it is best to have the Beholder take a standard action attack and take a move action to re-position the beholder for the next attack every round. It could also be that the attack action entry is an error . . . and shouldn't include the bite attack ?? The 3.5 MM errata is not out yet. :D

There is a "general" section, followed by the baby beholder, and finally the big guy himself. The number of rays per arc is in the general section (IIRC).
