and I'm trying to figure out how hard it would be to use two two-handed weapons (a bow and a spear) at once.
I THINK, that if I take multi-weapon fighting I might be able to get away with one extra attack with one of them per round, taking a -2 to hit on all my attacks for the round, as well as splitting up iteratives between the two weapons. So like one attack with the bow and one with the spear at highest BAB - 2, then using whichever is better for the -5 iterative (-2 more).
Thoughts?

Considering you can fight with a 2-h weapon + boot-blade (utilizing 3 limbs), I don't see it as much of a stretch to use 2 weapons via 4 arms. But neither is a light weapon so you'd be taking -4 to all your attack rolls so I don't see it as being terribly advantageous. Also, if you had in mind at all to 2-h your off-hand weapon, it still only gets half Str bonus, even if it's a non-light weapon.

Something to think about is grabbing a shield for one of those arms. Can get a lot of AC for little investment. That leaves 3 hands to wield weapons. Theoretically, you could hold a bow in 1 hand while wielding the longspear in 2 hands. Then, free action to unwield the longspear - i.e. hold it with one hand so wield the bow with 2 hands.
Basically gives you shield bonus to AC all the time while retaining the ability to use either 2-handed weapon for any given attack.
How are you getting proficient with both? Feats? Evolution? Other?
