In Spell Compendium theres a Spell called Girallons Blessing basicly the caster grows a 2nd pair of arms
Now it says that each of the Casters arms ends in a clawed hand with fingers and an oppossable thumb it then goes on to talk about the claw damage. However what happans if the caster chooses to wield a weapon in each hand?
According to the description the caster uses Base attack Bonus + Str modifier for attack roles theres nothing about Two weapon fighting penalties, it does say that the caster doesnt gain any extra attacks claw attacks from having a high base attack bonus.
So does this mean that some one casting Girallons Blessing would get 4 attacks at their best attack bonus?

Multiarmed creatures have one primary hand and two+ secondary hands(generally three). Also, Two-Weapon Fighting doesn't work for creatures with three or more arms; they take Multiweapon Fighting(page 304 of the MM 3.5) instead. See page 304 of the MM, Savage Species, Draconomicon, the MMII, and the MMIII. |

the spell description seems to suggest that someone with Girallons blessing gains the benefits of Multiweapon fighting for the duration of the spell then........ |

Um, yes, that's from the natural weapon attack rules, not the multiweapon fighting rules. |
