In the "Creating a Diversion to Hide" subsection of the Stealth section in the Skills chapter it states that if you are not behind Cover or in Concealment you can make a bluff roll to create a diversion to reestablish that your hidden so that you can make a stealth roll. What type of action is the bluff in that instance?
This is the situation I'm thinking of as a point of reference:
The Rogue use Feint as a standard action on the goblin, then uses Bluff to cause a diversion and then rolls stealth as part of his move action. Is this legal?
Another example:
The Rogue uses Bluff to create a diversion and then rolls stealth as part of his move action to get within melee range of the goblin and then uses his standard action to attack that goblin.
Basically if that Bluff roll in "Creating a Diversion" is a standard action it would greatly decrease the usefulness of that use of Bluff/Stealth in that instance. I assumed the bluff was part of the stealth roll and therefore must be a swift or free action. Am I correct or completely off base?
Bluff takes at least 1 round so its full round to bluff move to hide then you can take your standard action to do something like shoot the guy or whatever.
