Swift in the middle of full round?


Rules Questions


A player asked me if, in between attacks of a full round action, he could perform a Swift action. I honestly had no idea what the ruling should be on this. Thoughts?


No, you may not perform it during the full round action. It would interrupt and end the action.

You can perform one or more free actions while taking another action normally.

You can take a swift action anytime you would normally be allowed to take a free action.

I'd say yes.

Per PRD:

Full-Round Action: A full-round action consumes all your effort during a round. The only movement you can take during a full-round action is a 5-foot step before, during, or after the action. You can also perform free actions and swift actions (see below). See Table: Actions in Combat for a list of full-round actions.


Huh, learn something new everyday I guess.

I knew you could take free actions, and it was that exact reason why I didn't think you could take swift.

Mea culpa.
