[QUOTE="Mistwell, post: 3634021, member: 2525"] On the rest, I can handle the overly cautiousness. But on this one...WHAT? You know they are both swift actions precisely so you can only use one? How on earth do you know something like that with precision? Seriously...what's with the hyperbole? I really doubt they were made swift actions precisely because you could only use one in the same round relative to each other... I actually think they are designed to be quick one-round abilities, and the "one per round" is very secondary to them. The times it becomes an issue is quite rare really. From what I can tell, WOTC is making everything a swift action instead of a free action if it could go either way, by default. I don't think they are thinking that much about that decision either. But both of us are wildly speculating on that issue... Given the other opinions in this thread, I suspect you are in the vast minority on this issue. Taking longer to cast a spell should not, generally, be that big a deal for most DMs. [/QUOTE]
