What Type of Action is this?

[elbandit]

Howdy!

In my last game we had a situation where one character became disarmed of his only weapon and another player handed him his. During the game I rolled randomly to determine what it would be, but now I seek a real answer. My question is:

What type of action would be handing an ally a weapon or item?

What type of action would be taking a item from an ally?

Would either provoke an AoO?

Thanks!

If both have a BAB above +1, then it's a free action that must be with a move action, for both. just like drawing a weapon, without quickdraw.

Onviously this is not in the books and requires DM adjudication.

I would require at least one of the PCs to spend a move action -- probably the one picking up the weapon. This resembles the same as if person A dropped it & person B picked it up; or if person A just held it out (free) and person B effectively had to draw it (move).

If the post had not been acting wonky, I would have answered the same thing. Also, the character that receives the weapon should delay his action until the other character gives him his.

We handle this the same way as pleaded for
