I actually created a improved multiweapon fighting and a greater multiweapon fighting. They still have the same prerequisites for improved two weapon fighting and greater two weapon fighting. I also made the other corresponding feats. But only our most experienced players would be allowed to play as a kasatha and use them and no more than one kasatha per campaign. That way the campaign would not get out of hand with everyone playing in a kasatha. The only real restriction I put on playing a kasatha and having all these feats is they could not play a fighter. But I did have a few of them get creative. One played a Ranger with two bows. One decided to do wheel to Great weapons. One carried a longsword a short sword and two Shields. It all just depends on the DM. I'm not here to be a rule lawyer. That takes the fun out of it. But a fighter kasatha able to get all those feats would be way to o.p.

To amend part of my earlier statement. Don't necessarily focus on the hit die just the BAB. Cuz I have noticed in the bestiaries but there are some monsters in there that have more HD than there BAB. Sorry if there was any confusion

Actually I found an easier way to determine a monster cohort level. This is the formula I use. Harvest you determine which monster you are used for a cohort. Then go back to the bestiary,(p293), and determine its type using the table 1-4. Pay attention to the base attack bonus progression for its particular type. Then you can use its progression from table 1 - 6 to figure out its actual level.

Example:
Giant Eagle is a magical Beast. It has the fast progression and has four hit die. Going by the table 1 - 6 that would make it an effective level four.

After that if you needed to add class levels to bring it up where it needs to be then those were just stack onto what it already has.

The idea is every class has a progression and one hit die associated with it. Knowing that because the eagle has the fast progression that would be the equivalent to the fighter progression. So if an Erinyes is an outsider with a fast progression with a BAB of 9 and and 9 hit die, that would make it an effective level nine. Even though the table says you cannot receive it until your leadership score reaches a certain point. I use the leadership table to determine when I can attempt to get one. And then using my formula I determine its effective level and then give it class levels to bring it up where it should be.

But as I said this is just my formula. But when all is said and done it's up to your DM to allow you to use my formula or they're own. I do hope this helps.
