    Manyshot and Vital Strike = ouch?

    Okay, so i read both of these feats like 10 times each and unless i'm blind and missed something (errata?) these two feats should stack. The reason i ask is because i'm playing a ranger (archer) build and this would be interesting. Now, i know the general rule of stacking is that it isn't cumulative but always based upon the base factor.

    So if my math is right, an archer doing a vital/manyshot with a longbow would deal 3d8 as a single attack + deadly aim + point blank shot (if applicable). If i've got this right...awesome.

    Manyshot works on full attacks. Vital Strike does not.

    +1

    Vital Strike works only when making a Standard Action "Attack Action" and no other ways like Charge and AoO.
