Message: <blockquote data-quote="FormerlyHemlock" data-source="post: 7002628" data-attributes="member: 6787650">You could generalize this and say:"Any object interaction which you have prepared in advance and practiced extensively can be performed without an object interaction cost as part of whatever the associated action is."This would apply to:(1) Drawing an arrow from a quiver or (grabbing a fistful of arrows to shoot sequentially like Lars Andersen does) as part of your Attack action;(2) Drawing several daggers from your bandolier to throw as part of your your Attack action;(3) Pulling an eye of newt out of your spell component pouch as part of your Cast A Spell (Hex) action;(4) Pulling out your shield, stowing your bow on your back, and unsheathing your longsword as part of your Don A Shield action (so it doesn't take multiple rounds to switch from ranged to melee configuration);It also implies that e.g. if you run out of arrows and run over to where a kobold dumped a bunch of arrows on the floor, it is not faster to shoot all those arrows from your bow than it would be to pick them up. Rather, because you haven't practiced shooting arrows from off the floor, you're governed by normal object interaction rules: you can shoot one of them per turn.I find this solution fairly elegant, if I do say so myself.</blockquote>
