At will attacks by Devil

"At will—cone of cold (DC 20), ice storm, greater teleport (self plus 50 lbs. of objects only), persistent image (DC 20), wall of ice (DC 19)"

This is an at-will action by an Devil, Gelugon (Ice Devil)...

does this mean that each turn the devil can do all the above spells on his turn?

Silver Crusade

No. Each takes a standard action. It can do one per round all day long but not all of them each round.

edit: to be clear At Will means he can do it an unlimited number of times per day but he still needs to use a standard action to activate the ability.

Grand Lodge

can the devil use a full round action and take all his natural attacks and then use his at-will abilities?


Nope. If you use a full round action you don't get to use standard or move actions.

Silver Crusade

In this case, no. The at will designation simply means that the Gelugon can cast as many Cones of Cold as he wants (for example) in a day but must still take normal actions to do so.

From pg. 304 of the Bestiary under Spell-Like Abilities:
A constant spell-like ability or one that can
be used at will has no use limit. Reactivating a constant
spell-like ability is a swift action. Using all other spelllike
abilities is a standard action unless noted otherwise,
and doing so provokes attacks of opportunity.
