Standard Action Diplomacy or Intimidate


Pathfinder First Edition General Discussion


I thought there was a feat or class ability that would let someone use diplomacy or intimidate as a standard action instead of needing 1 minute, but I can't find it.

If it exist I would appreciate a link to it.

here's one that is not a feat or class ability - just a spell that gives you an Intimidate check as a standard...
Blistering Invective.

Not EXACTLY what you were looking for, but maybe it'll work? The advantage is it hits all your enemies in range, not just a single target...

Scarab Sages

Or perhaps you are thinking of:

Call Truce?

... not all that useful in my opinion. Once it was introduced as a Feat, I heard one judge state that it would mean that PCs couldn't call for a brake in combat without it - something that could have been Role Played before was now a Feat and a Game Mechanic...

There is an implement you can channel energy (as a cleric) into that lets you use diplomacy as a standard.

Just Scale

IMHO that probably shouldn't be PFS legal as it has the potential to seriously derail just about any scenario with a maxed out diplomacy character. And there are a lot of Diplomancers out there.

Edit: oops, it is a swift action, not a standard. Even Worse! Fake Item! Demand Special Developer Councel for Immediate Investiation!

Grand Lodge

Rogue Skill Unlocks will do it for Diplomacy...

Rogue Skill Unlock

The one minute rule is something many GM's ignore in home games. I tend to ignore it myself depending on the enemy, but I figured I should look up whatever I need in case the next GM does want to enforce it.

PFS doesn't really have that type of leeway to just ignore rules.

PS: I am aware that some do it anyway.

This is what I was thinking of. I will see if I can get this as a custom feat.


Diplomacy says thatnit may take a longer or shorter amount of time at the dms call, so the dm isnt ignoring anything if they let you go

Why cant we be friends why cant we be friends .....

True. I didnt realize that making a request, and trying to influence their attitudes took different amounts of time.
