Big question here since it's become a major discussion for my gaming group.
When a person takes their five-foot step away from a monster that they're fighting (who has a threatened range of only five feet) and THEN takes a regular move, does this provoke an attack of opportunity on him/her from the monster?
It's only vaguely stated what happens in the core rulebook under movement in an example and I'd really like clarification on this.
I just couldn't imagine that it would since if casters take a five foot step back and then start casting that doesn't provoke an attack of opportunity and this is pretty much the same situation.
