I'd rule that it duplicates the opponent targeted, and hits them each once. But you know how I hate splatbooks...

I'd do something like "The fake arrow disintergrates after impact" personally.
The way it's written, there isn't actually a "fake", since both arrows were split from the original.
It's a very accurate description of splitting something (for once it isn't just making a second-grade copy) but as a result, it becomes easier for it to get out of hand.

Zauber's Mutable Rod: This rod has a number of useful functions that make it easier to live in the wilderness. It is made of polished wood, with five studlike buttons on one end. Each button produces a different effect when pressed. Unless otherwise noted, the rod’s functions have no limit on the number of times they can be employed. • When button 1 is pressed, one end of the rod produces a small flame, equivalent to a candle. • When button 2 is pressed, the rod unfolds into a two-person tent, complete with bedrolls and warm blankets. • When button 3 is pressed, the rod becomes a one-handed hammer, suitable for pounding pitons into a wall. • When button 4 is pressed, the rod becomes a sturdy iron spade. • When button 5 is pressed, the rod becomes a wooden bucket able to hold 2 gallons of liquid. Once per day, it can be commanded to fill with fresh water. If the rod is seriously damaged or broken in any of its alternate forms (button 2, 3, 4, or 5), it reverts to its basic rod form and cannot be activated for 24 hours. Moderate conjuration; CL 9th; Craft Rod, minor creation; Price 375 gp; Weight 2 lb.

that was for my hypothetical house ruling. In my hypothetical house rule one is a fake one.

It can work, but if you do rule it that way, you'll also need to state how to determine which arrow is the fake (which may be important in certain situations, such as if you fire the arrows into an antimagic field or something).

same way you make any random determination. Roll a die
