Pinpoint Targeting


Rules Questions


hello everybody.

me and my group are near the end of a campaign and for our next campaign i will play a mounted archer and while looking for feat to prepare in advance for my character, i have come across pinpoit targeting and i am unsure how it work. the feat say that

''As a standard action, make a single ranged attack. The target does not gain any armor, natural armor, or shield bonuses to its Armor Class. You do not gain the benefit of this feat if you move this round.''

so can i use my standard, shoot, then move or i can't move since if i move this round i can't benefit from this feat, but it never state i cannot move after using it. i am force to not move during the entire round to benefit from the feat or it is only before using this feat?

thank you in advance for you answer.

I'd say "this round" means the entire round, not just until you use the feat. You can't move the entire round.

If you use the feat first, you may use the move action you have left for something else that doesn't involve movement. If you move first, then you're blocked from using the feat until your next round.
