Summon Monster (Standard Action) Question


Advanced Player's Guide Playtest: Final Playtest


So a summoner can move, then cast summon monster, and still have the summonned monster move and attack (or perform a full-round action) on the very same round? Am I right?


3.5's solution to this question was that the summoned monster was only allowed a standard action on the turn that a standard action summon was performed. Otherwise, you could do everything that was listed.

And what's Pathfinder's answer to the question? Jason? :)

I'm sorry.. where was this?

A rapid summon monster in 3.5 had a full round action available as far as I recall,

Good question! Waiting for replies!

If summoned creature has only standard, can the summoner choose to cast SM with a full round ?

I'm sorry, I remember this from the conjurer Wizard variant which allowed for standard action summons.
