[QUOTE="Hypersmurf, post: 3565019, member: 1656"] My mistake - I think I was recalling the 3E PsiHB version of Hustle, which granted an extra move action next round. Though I think there's still potential for interpretation over 3.5 Hustle. You manifested the power as a swift action, and it allows you to make an additional move action in the current round... but it specifies 'in the current round', not immediately. A free action (and therefore a swift action) can explicitly be taken while taking another action normally. A move action can't - I can take a move action before or after a standard action, but not [i]during[/i] a standard action, for example. Likewise, I can take a standard action before or after a move action, but not during the move action - otherwise feats like Shot on the Run would be pointless. Hustle, manifested as a swift action, allows me to take an additional move action in the current round... but it doesn't state I can take an additional move action while taking another action normally. It's different, since 5' step can explicitly occur during another action, as can a free action (and therefore a swift action)... but not a move action. They have similar bonuses, but they are not multiple attacks because your BAB is high enough; they are multiple attacks because a/ you are wielding a second weapon in your off-hand, or b/ you have a feat (ITWF, GTWF, etc). Just as Haste or Rapid Shot allow you multiple attacks, but not multiple attacks because your BAB is high enough. Just that it's the same FAQ that says switching hands is a move action. If it allows removing a hand as a free action (implicit in the answer you quoted), and also allows putting a second hand on a weapon as a free action (hence my question), then you could switch hands as two free actions, rather than one move action. -Hyp.
