Another spell that gives additional arms!

[Nytemare3701]

Arms of Plenty (level 3 sorc/wiz, TOUCH RANGE) Lords of Madness page 209.

Give the target 2 additional arms that can make attacks, as well as a rend. A few things of note:

"Since the claws are primary attacks, you can attack with them in addition to making your weapon attacks without penalty."

Unfortunately though:

"The claws cannot be used to wield weapons or manipulate objects."

2 additional attacks at 1d6+str, then a rend for 2d6+1.5*str. Not bad for a buff to stick on your BFS at lowish levels.

Now, how can we abuse gaining an obscene amount of arms to use Fuse Arms for a retarded bonus to death causing?

I've probably missed some. And quite a few of those do not specify being able to grasp or "use as arms".

Evard's Menacing Tentacles from PHBII.  Fairly useful spell in my opinion as it lets you get 2 attacks in as a free action.
