Quickened
You gain 1 additional action at the start of your turn each
round. Many effects that make you quickened specify the
types of actions you can use with this additional action.
If you become quickened from multiple sources, you can
use the extra action you’ve been granted for any single
action allowed by any of the effects that made you
quickened.
Because quickened has its effect at the start
of your turn, you don’t immediately gain actions if you
become quickened during your turn.

The question is:

Speed Rune on two weapons counts as different sources? Or "rune" is a universal "type of source" therefore 2 swords with speed dont grant me 2 extra attacks, only 1?
It doesnt say "type of sources" or anything like it, only "multiple sources". Two weapons are ... multiple source. Am i right?


Two runes are two sources. Therefore, you can only make ONE extra attack in your turn.

As i read it, i came to understand (or misunderstand) that:

- Different sources grants me the extra action (Haste spell, Rune, Lv20 Fighter Feat), they all give me 1 extra attack each for coming from different sources.

- Two runes are different sources, indeed, therefore... 1 action each.

If you become quickened from multiple sources, you can
use the extra action you’ve been granted for any single
action allowed by any of the effects that made you
quickened.

Thanks @Iff, but your statement of telling me they are different sources is the exact reason it makes me think i get 2 actions.

More statements please? An official from Dev would help also.. <3

You only ever get 1 extra Action from quickened. If there are multiple source for the effect you’re able to choose from any of the allowed Action when you use your quickened Action. So if you have a weapon Rune that allows you to Strike and a spell that allows you to stride with your quickened Action, you’re allowed to choose between striding and striding when you use your quickened Action. You never gain 2 quickened Action because the quickened does Not Stack with itself apart from allowing other kinds of Action.

I see. Thanks for clarification.
