Followup to Coordinated Grab/Punch Combo

[Tonio]

Steve, your answer to the Coordinated Grab/Punch Combo question made me wonder... Can you coordinate just the squeeze part of Grab-and-Squeeze with the punch, so that the other character gets the benefits of the Grab when he Punches? That is, can you time the sequence so that the Grab occurs first, then the Punch and Squeeze, coordinated, afterwards?

No; by definition Coordinated actions take place simultaneously. The character using the punch doesn’t get to use the reduced DCV for the Grabbed target, since the Grab-and-Squeeze is basically one single action.
