Shiva Arms: Practical or Just Fun? Options

[maine75man]

I've always had a thing for characters with extra arms. Don't know why but I do. My question is are there any good way's to build a character around the Shiva Arms meta-quality in 4E.

Hello everybody (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

My question is are there any good way's to build a character around the Shiva Arms meta-quality in 4E.

Yes there Is I'm playing a Nartaki Elf (Gunslinger Adept)myself and he's (now after ca 100 KArma) quite effective and especial
versatile as well as in close Combat (4 Kukri ) or with 2-3 SMGs etc

@Splitting the Pool
There are Modifiers (positive like Specialisation,Tracerammo or in close Combat Reach and personalised Grip)
that are added AFTER splitting the Pool.Negative Ones like Wound mod, Distance,Visibility,Cover are subtracted from all Pools (of course)
and Skillmodifiers (Adept improved Skill, Reflexrecorder, some pos.Qualities) that raise the Skill and these are included BEFORE splitting the Pool

And Yes I know the FAQ but they...Suck are incorrect because they contradict RAW.

Generally speaking/writing
Akimbo shooting,especially with 4 Arms, is great if its a High Noon Situation and with a optimised Char
or if its against a small Number of Mooks
