Excuse my ignorance, but Rapid Shot and Many shot are confusing me:
Rapid shot:
You can get one extra attack per round with a ranged weapon. The attack is at your highest base attack bonus, but each attack you make in that round (the extra one and the normal ones) takes a –2 penalty. You must use the full attack action to use this feat.
Manyshot:
As a standard action, you may fire two arrows at a single opponent within 30 feet. Both arrows use the same attack roll (with a –4 penalty) to determine success and deal damage normally.
So basically, Manyshot allows you to shoot two arrows at someone at -4, rapid shot allows you two arrows at -2. Only difference is that you can't move with Rapid shot? There's no way that these stack or interact, right? Either you move and make 2 attacks at -4, or don't move and shoot 2 at -2?
A 6th level ranger who has chosen archery could also just shoot 1 arrow at highest BAB and one arrow at lower BAB, correct (as a full-round action). So, no matter what he does in a round, a 6th-level ranger shouldn't be shooting off more than 2 arrows in a round, correct?
