Multiple Move Actions with Psionics


Rules Questions

Grand Lodge

Ok, I have a question. I am playing a Psion(I know, this probably won't apply outside of this.) and I have the feats quicken power, empower power, psi-crystal containment(hold an extra psionic focus in crystal) and psionic mediation(gain psionic focus as a move action). This is reference to hustle.

The following scenarios have all come up:

A) Move: Gain Psionic Focus
Standard: Use Empowered Power
Swift action: Use either quicken power or hustle. If I use hustle can I use it to gain psionic focus again?
5-foot step

B) If my psicrystal is under the effect of solicit psicrystal, and because I have psionic mediation can I use a move action to give it psionic focus?

C) I guess basically, are there any rules or suggestions on when you can and can't use move, standard and swift actions? If I don't move with either action I can still take a five foot step right?

D) If I use a full round action, could I hustle and then move?

Thanks.

Are you using DSP's(pathfinder compatible update) psionics or 3.5?

That's all legal.

I don't see why not.

The only restriction on when you can take a certain type of action is that you must have that type of action (or a type higher than it) available to spend on the action.

You can take a 5-foot step as long as you did not move during your other actions (including your extra move action from hustle).

You can. A full round action uses your standard action and move action, so you still have a swift action left (which can be turned into a move action with Hustle).

The power's description makes it pretty clear that you can even if it wasn't already, and even gives the special provision that if you full attack, then use Hustle, and then move away, you don't provoke an attack of opportunity.
