[QUOTE="BlindKobold, post: 48607, member: 1375"] Completely is a powerful word. One you have COMPLETELY misused in this particular situation. =) Can you quote an official source to that ruling? I've seen it stated both ways... and as yet have seen nothing official contradicting me. Also, I was referring to the QUICKER THAN THE EYE feat, not the standard feint, which is slightly different in usage and effect. No, I was not referring to p127 of the PHB at all. As my post stated, I was referring to a Dragon Sage Advice where the sage stated that two partial actions can equal a full round action. He was talking about spells at the time, but the statement that two partial actions = 1 full round action is irregardless of the original topic. If a spell takes a full round action and a full attack takes a full round action, then they take the same amount of time. If you can do one during a double partial, you can do both, otherwise they are not equal... which they are... and you CAN refer to p127 I believe to see that they are in fact both full round actions and therefore equal in time. [B][/B] Admittedly, this is a "gray" area. In essence, you are being granted a partial action that is an attack. Can this be combined with another partial action to equal a full round attack? Until we get an official ruling, it's 6 of ones, half dozen of another. So, as I stated earlier, COMPLETELY is a powerful word. Don't misuse it. [/QUOTE]
