[QUOTE="ECMO3, post: 9756206, member: 7030563"] That is not true it is an action which you take on your turn. It generally allows you to take another action as a reaction in response to a trigger off turn. Spell casting using the readied action uses a specific rule that bypasses this. There is nothing in the Ready Action which lets you use a second action on your turn. Yes but the action has to come off turn. You can not use more than one action in a turn, so if casting a spell "normally" always requires you to use a Magic Action then you could never ready a spell because you have to cast it on your turn and you can not use a second action on your turn. "Ready a spell" is different, and that is how it is worded. It does not say "readying the Magic Action". You can ready the Magic Action per the general rules as it is an action, but this is not for casting a spell as casting a spell has specific rules associated with it. You would ready the Magic Action for something else that uses the Magic Action (for example Turn Undead) and would use the Magic Action off turn in response to the trigger. [/QUOTE]
