Hidden Weapon Questions


Rules Questions


Here are some questions I haven't found definitive answers for regarding hidden weapons.

1) Can I draw one as a move action by taking a penalty on my Sleight of Hand roll? The Sleight of Hand skill only says that drawing a hidden weapon "is a standard action" but the Skill Unlock for it implies that it's normally possible.

2) If I have the ability to draw a hidden weapon as a move action (say, via Quick Draw) and have at least a +1 BAB, can I do so as part of a move?

Yes:

Action: Any Sleight of Hand check is normally a standard action. However, you may perform a Sleight of Hand check as a move action by taking a –20 penalty on the check.

Good question! I think strict RAW says no because there's nothing that lets you put the two rules together like that. But outside PFS any GM ought to let you do it because duh. (Clear it in advance though.)
