Looking for a way to change a standard action to a move / swift / immediate action


Rules Questions


Heres the buildup. I have a 1/2 orc Inquisitor that uses TWF and an orcish double axe. The action is from the teamwork feat ability they get. Here it is:

The inquisitor Teamwork Feat wrote:

Teamwork Feat: At 3rd level, and every three levels thereafter, the inquisitor gains a bonus feat in addition to those gained from normal advancement. These bonus feats must be selected from those listed as teamwork feats. The inquisitor must meet the prerequisites of the selected bonus feat.
As a standard action, the inquisitor can choose to learn a new bonus teamwork feat in place of the most recent bonus teamwork feat she has already learned. In effect, the inquisitor loses the bonus feat in exchange for the new one. She can only change the most recent teamwork
feat gained. Whenever she gains a new teamwork feat, the previous teamwork feat becomes set and cannot be changed again. An inquisitor can change her most recent teamwork feat a number of times per day equal to her Wisdom modifier.

My question pertains to the 2nd paragraph. "As a standard action." Is there any way to take a feat or some other way to change this from a Standard action to a move/swift/immediate action?

Thanks

Nope. Just make sure you have the right teamwork feat going in ;).

It also becomes less of an issue at lvl 6+ as you have one set and one switcharoo.


Agreed.

Presently, I am going for Lookout Teamwork feat and if I keep my full actions in the surprise round, I would use the standard to change teamwork feats to Precise Strike, then move into combat. Hopefully, one of my teammates will back me up on the flanking.

After combat I would change the teamwork feat back to lookout for the next encounter.

It will be nice getting 1D8+str+1d6 precision/1d8+1/2str + 1d6 Precision damage a round at 3rd level.

By RAW there is nothing. But you could discuss it with your GM. I personally don't see a feat that allowed you to do it as a move action being terribly unbalancing.


There's certainly class abilities and even feats which let certain standard actions be done faster, but nothing that just lets any arbitrary standard action be faster... Otherwise, hello extra spells/round.
