Surprise round


Advice


Is there a trait or feat or rogue talent that lets me do a full action during surprise round?

There is an archetype: Bandit Decent enough that some people take it, but overall not the best.

But its Ambush ability does not explicitly give a full round action. If the OP hopes for, say, iterative attacks in the surprise round, they'd have to convince their DM that this ability's move + standard + immediate means it gives a full-round action. Me, I think if a full-round action was meant, it would be stated.


One I found is Look Out, a teamwork feat - so it requires an ally. When both the character and its ally can act in the surprise round, the text of the feat stipulates the character can take a full-round action.

regarding my earlier post - in light of Look Out I might be willing to rule that the Bandit's Ambush also provides the full-round action, since Lookout suggests move + standard is worth a full round action.
