mythic combat reflexes states that if you spend a mythic point you may make attacks of opportunity against foes you've already made attacks of opportunity against that round if they provoke attacks of opportunity from you by moving. I have trouble understanding what they mean by this.
Since I can make attacks of opportunity on the same person for different reasons in a round, that would mean they imply I can make multiple attacks of opportunity for the same reason: an enemy moving in my reach. But how can you provoke more than one AoO by moving,
which brings us to my interpretation: let's say I have a reach of 20 feet and my enemy has a reach of 5 feet. My enemy charges at me I get my initial AoO at 20 feet now he keeps coming so I get another at 15 and at 10 feet (per my understanding every 5 foot of movement within my reach would provoke another AoO since he is moving towards me...) I may very well be wrong on this, but I don't understand it otherwise.
Thoughts? Answers? Comments?
thanks in advance
You are correct. That is exactly why it is mythic. It allows you the chance to make an AoO against a target for each and every threatened square they leave during their movement. This is a case of the specific rule (Mythic Combat Reflexes feat) overriding the general rule (you only provoke once from a single target for movement in a round).
It can be an eye opener the first time you use that against players...
