Would the Swashbuckler ability Opportune Parry and Riposte trigger, the teamwork feat, Paired Opportunists?
| MurphysParadox |
The swashbuckler would get the +4 from Paired Opportunists for the Parry roll, since the roll is made as if it was an AOO. However, it is not actually an AOO, the enemy isn't provoking an AOO from the swashbuckler so the teammate would not get an AOO of their own.
The wording in parry that refers to AOOs is there for two reasons: One to limit the number of parries you can do a round ("expend a use of an attack of opportunity") and to grant you any bonuses from abilities that improve AOO rolls ("an attack roll as if she were making an attack of opportunity").
The teamwork feat specifically says it activates when an enemy provokes an AOO, which isn't the case here.
