Message: <blockquote data-quote="Magus_Jerel" data-source="post: 128877" data-attributes="member: 3940">Reiteration:Free action: free actions consume a negligeble amount of time. and one or more such actions can be performend in conjunction with other types.I'll go a step farther - you can't perform a free action at all unless it is in conjunction with another action.  Where does it say said action has to be an action that execute my free action must initiate?  eh?yeah - and then I showed you the following from PHB 121: Free action: ... their impact is so minor they are considered free...1. The text in the first part DOES NOT EXIST in a fashion that is EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED.    The text pointed out that it needs to be "my turn" to INITIATE My actions - thus the term initiative.  It need not be My turn to REACT TO actions - in a passive or active fashion.2. your insistence that feather fall is an exception relies on the assumption that the text EXPRESSLY exists - which it does not.3. I have pointed out where a free action needed an explicit prohibition of being "taken at any time" namely that of a barbarians rage, Implying by presence that you CAN take a free action in response to another action - even one not your own, unless the action says otherwise.4. You would go a step farther I think - saying that you cannot take any action on someone else's turn AT ALL.  I am stating that you CAN - but you cannot INITIATE actions when it is "not your turn".5. Logic Thread:Casting a quickened spell is a free action- table 8-4 pg 128 PHBA free action can be taken in conjunction with another action- Glossary definition; free actionThis action NEED NOT BE your own action- super duper quantum leap that seems impossible to Caliban et al.Conclusion:it is possible to use a quickened spell to interrupt you opponent's action - such as his casting a spell.</blockquote>
