Part of a Move Action
Part of a Move Action
Type of Action: Special (see below)
When something can be performed as "part of a move action," it requires a move action to perform. However, this type of action specifically allows the user to use the move action to both perform the action and move up to their speed. For example, a character can walk up to their speed, and while doing so, also draw a weapon.
Nearly any action you perform with a move action (such as standing up from Prone) can also include an action which is "part of a move action".
However, if you degrade your move action to a Swift Action, take a Full Attack Action, or a Full-Round Action, you cannot perform a "part of a move action" action this round. That is, you must take an actual move action (though not necessarily to move) to include a "part of a move action" activity with it.
Some examples of actions which are "part of a move action":
- Drawing a weapon
- Sheathing a weapon
- Drawing a potion or item from a bandoleer or other easy-access location
- Pick up an item from the ground (in your space or in a space you are moving through)
