Versatile. Able to have easy access to:main melee, offhand, ranged, backup ranged, backup melee, rope with grappling hook, use activated magic items, flask of acid, holywater, tanglefoot bag, rope, etc.However I'm not sure I follow the rules as Exen Trik has laid out for Readiness.Rerading the text you seem to be suggesting that you can draw any item that you have more Readiness points then as a free action. (this would mean that all you need is 4 to draw an unlimited number of items. 4 would be a very easy number for a 1st level Rogue to have)While I believe what was intended was that you could have a number of stored items (based on the items size) held at the ready for quick drawing. Regardless I do think this is the better mechanic to pursue. So rather then having and unlimited number of items to draw as a free action, a 1st level 12 dex and 12 int Rogue/Bard/Ranger/monk would be able to have a total of Items with a total rating of 4.eg: a shortsword (1) light shield(2) and crossbow (1) or a club(1) bow (3) and flask of acid</blockquote>
