How many full round actions can I get?

[woodenbandman]

1 standard action + 1 move action = 1 full round action, correct? So I'm thinking something like

Elan Factotum8/Ruby Knight Vindicator7/Warmind5 nets you Hustle, Divine Impetus, and Cunning Surge. Disadvantages are obvious, the most obvious one is that it requires 20 levels to work, though gestalt would be sweet. It also requires INT, WIS, and CHA, Fonts of Inspiration and Extra Turning, and you can't really do all the standard tricks such as dipping dread necro or sacred exorcist, because you need all your levels. Also, how do you pump your power points up really high?

However, you do get extra full round actions, which are charming. You could do... something with them. Anyone wanna help me develop this concept?

Assuming no houserules, you can't combine a move action and a standard action to get a full-round action. Although you can combine two standard actions to get one:

Technically speaking, you couldn't use these full round actions to full attack, charge, run or withdraw, so most of the fun is taken out of it. Technically speaking, about the best use for this would be to cast multiple full-round action spells(most likely summons) in a single round.

Although from the perspective of a DM(and not a rules lawyer), I could see this being allowed for charging running but not withdrawing(doesn't make sense as two actions no matter how you try to spin it). DMs would be split both ways on allowing full-attacks if you use two standard actions in the same round since it's hard to imagine using a standard action to "start a full attack" and another to "finish a full attack." Though if you can get away with charging, you can use Pounce to solve the full attack problem.

That's why he made the assumption.

I think you ought to get a way of Shapechanging. Chronotyryns double the amount of actions you have.

[woodenbandman]

Oh, so the best way to get extra actions is still Factotum. That's disappointing, but it's a blessing I suppose because it's far easier to max the number of inspiration points you get than it is to max your turn attepmts and your power points.

It would be sweet to use War Mind's ability to greater psionic weapon several opponents at once.

Recently went through a list of ways to get extra actions, here are some off the top of my head.

You can acquire the abilities through Shapechanging, or (not recommended) through Ability Rip (SK)

Chronotryn's Dual Actions (Su) (MM2)
Aspect of Demogorge's Dual Actions (Ex) (MHB)>> Not sure if this stacks with the Chronotryn's
Choker's Quickness (MM) >> Extra standard action
Sharn's Haste (MoF, I believe) >> Extra standard action (As 3.0 Haste)
Swiftblade Class Ability >> Extra standard action when under the effects of Haste

There's also a monster that has Adrenaline Surge which gives extra actions, and a Kalashstar PrC whose 10th level ability allows you to spend your psionic focus for a standard action (Think it's in RoE)

The number of full round actions you can get is proportional to the number of twinned celerities you can cast followed by a number of greater celerities.  Metamagic reducers are nice here. Sorcerers with Arcane Fusion, Greater Arcane Fusion, and Arcane Spellsurge are useful too.

Of course you need to find a way to become immune to daze.

Iron Heart Surge?

And yeah, I love Arcane Spellsurge to death. If I ever make a 15th level gestalt... I will be so broken it won't be funny anymore. I'd make it half dedicated to extra actions via Factotum/Ruby Knight Vindicator, and the other half will be loaded with sorceror prestige classes, such as, say, shadowcraft mage.

The problem is that you can't take two prestige classes at once.  I posted a factotum//swiftblade gestalt that finished of with geomancer cheese for automatic quicken spell 1-5

8th level sorceror/wizard spell from PHB2 Celerity, Greater gives you an extra full-round action

Least Dragonmark + Mark of the Dauntless or
Wyrm Wizard 2 to ad Favor of the Martyr to your spell list (Pal 4 IIRC)

...Planar Shepherd of Dal Quor!

The time traits of Dal Quor runs 10 times slower than the Material Plane, so you get 10 rounds for every 1 round when in your Planar Bubble! =)

[Negative Zero]

Dal Quor is ten times faster. If it was ten times slower, it would do the opposite of what you said.
