Casting the spell "transformation" is a standard action.
Drinking a potion is a standard action.
Can I do both standard actions in the same round?
If I can't, then is the spell "transformation" a two round spell, since you have to drink a potion and cast the spell (two standard actions)? Or is this a special thing, where you can do two standard actions at once?
spell description
Transformation
Transmutation
Level: Sor/Wiz 6
Components: V, S, M
Casting Time: 1 standard action
Range: Personal
Target: You
Duration: 1 round/level
You become a virtual fighting machine— stronger, tougher, faster, and more skilled in combat. Your mind-set changes so that you relish combat and you can’t cast spells, even from magic items.
You gain a +4 enhancement bonus to Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution, a +4 natural armor bonus to AC, a +5 competence bonus on Fortitude saves, and proficiency with all simple and martial weapons. Your base attack bonus equals your character level (which may give you multiple attacks).
You lose your spellcasting ability, including your ability to use spell activation or spell completion magic items, just as if the spells were no longer on your class list.
Material Component: A potion of bull’s strength, which you drink (and whose effects are subsumed by the spell effects).
