If you can take Regional traits, another option is "On-Guard":
Benefit: You gain a +1 trait bonus to Initiative checks, and if you are able to act during the surprise round of an encounter, you can draw a weapon (but not a potion or magic item) as a free action during that round.
Surprise round, Free draw weapon, stab/bash/shoot, deal max sneak.
