Description

The transmuted creatures move and act more quickly than normal. This extra speed has several effects.

When making a full attack action, a hasted creature may perform one bonus attack action at their highest attack value. This effect is not cumulative with similar effects, such as Divine Power or that provided by a weapon with the Speed magic property (or a weapon with a similar magic property). The attack action can be used to perform an additional attack, used to perform one of the combat maneuvers that require an attack action, or be traded away for a 5-foot step (just like a normal attack action). Note, however, that this is not a standard action; it is an attack action. Therefore, actions requiring a standard action to perform (such as casting another spell) cannot be performed with the bonus action provided by Haste.

All of the hasted creature's modes of movement (including land movement, burrow, climb, fly, and swim) increase by 30 feet, to a maximum of twice the subject's normal speed using that form of movement. This increase affects the creature's jumping distance as normal for increased speed. Multiple haste effects don't stack.

This spell lays an arcane charge on its target(s), depending on the caster who is casting the spell. If the targets are something other than you or another creature (such as an object or area), the spell lays an arcane charge on you, the caster. Targets which already have an arcane charge present must choose which to keep if the new spell has the same charge type. Only one arcane charge can ever be present on a target at a time.
