Got a rules interaction that I'm a bit unsure of here: if I am, say, a Barb10/Heritor knight6 with greater beast totem and mighty strikes, and find myself staggered, via say diehard, can I then charge as a standard action and use mighty strikes to add vital strike damage to my standard-action pounce attacks? Im not able to think of a good reason why not, but wanted to ask the boards before making assumptions.
So does the following work:
Staggered > 1 action/turn
Charge >available as standard action due to staggered
Pounce > full attack on charge, regardless of action used.
Mighty strikes > apply vital strike damage to any attack made as standard action
Therefore: full attack + vital strike on each attack?

Whenever the heritor knight makes a melee attack as a standard action, she can apply the effects of Improved Vital Strike to that attack. If she has Greater Vital Strike, she can apply that feat’s effects instead.
Emphasis mine.
Fairly certain this just removes the limitation on Vital Strike that doesn't allow it to be mixed with other kinds of effects/abilities on an attack because of the 'attack action' terminology.The way this is worded, it would not work with multiple attacks inside a standard action, only one.
