Agreed, but when was the last time you used TWF with a Bow?

The problem is that there isn't really a precedent for TWF w/Ranged-only weapons (we are ignoring Thrown weapons for now, as they can usually be used as Melee as well).

(Most) Ranged-only weapons need 2 hands to properly function. Sure, some can be fired 1-handed, but reloading is almost always a 2 hand job.

And 4-armed characters are not really all that common....
