Amazing Initiative and Sniping

[Infiniteidk]

Can you use Amazing Initiative to get an extra standard action, then trade that standard action for a move action to use stealth after making a full round attack from range?
If this doesn't work because you are revealed after the first shot, would it work with the dead shot deed?

I can address your first question, which is no. The best you could do is standard to snipe, move to hide, new standard from amazing init to snipe again.

if dead shot is a standard action, itd work fine.

Sniping requires a move action to enter stealth, while your standard action is used to make a ranged attack. Regardless of if you have an additional move action, the Sniping rules declare that you can only make one attack.

If you don't care about 'maintaining your obscured position', then you could full-attack and enter stealth as part of a five-foot step (or move action from Amazing Initiative).

Do keep in mind that only your first attack would benefit from being in stealth, unless you've got Signature Skill (Stealth) and 15 ranks in the skill.
