added 4/09/03) I am confused how the combinations of things such as autofire, multifire and rapid shot would work together… do they?
The following feats and extras affect multiple attacks: Multishot: Reduces the penalty for multifire and autofire to -2 (multifire) and -4 (autofire). Rapid Shot: Allows an extra ranged attack with a -2 modifier to both attacks. Rapid Strike: Allows an extra melee attack with a -2 modifier to both attacks. Multifire: Allows an extra attack with a -4 modifier to both attacks. Autofire: Allows two extra attacks with a -6 modifier to all three attacks. You can combine the above freely (with the exception of Rapid Shot and Rapid Strike), but the penalties are cumulative, and the Multishot feat only reduces the Multifire and Autofire penalties (not Rapid Shot). So if you have a power with both the Multifire and Autofire extras, and you have the Multishot and Rapid Shot feats, you can make a total of five ranged attacks (one base attack, one extra for Rapid Shot, one extra for Multifire, and two extra for Autofire) with a total penalty of -8 (-2 for Rapid Fire, -2 for Multifire, and -4 for A
