- Prerequisite Spell-like ability at caster level 10th or higher.
- Benefit Choose one of the creature’s spell-like abilities, subject to the restrictions described below. The creature can use that ability as a quickened spell-like ability three times per day (or less, if the ability is normally usable only once or twice per day).
Using a quickened spell-like ability is a free action that does not provoke an attack of opportunity. The creature can perform another action (including the use of another spell-like ability) in the same round that it uses a quickened spell-like ability. The creature may use only one quickened spell-like ability per round.
The creature can only select a spell-like ability duplicating a spell with a level less than or equal to half its caster level (round down) -4. For a summary, see the associated table.
In addition, a spell-like ability that duplicates a spell with a casting time greater than 1 full round cannot be quickened.
- Normal Normally the use of a spell-like ability requires a standard action and provokes an attack of opportunity unless noted otherwise.
- Special This feat can be taken multiple times. Each time it is taken, the creature can apply it to a different one of its spell-like abilities.

The Monster Manual caps the feat Quicken Spell-like Ability so that only spell-like abilities up to 6th level can be quickened. This, however, appears to be because the table doesn’t take into account caster levels beyond 20th. See below for the expansion of this feat, as well as for the Empower Spell-like Ability feat.
