attacks of opportunity against players using reach past them.


Rules Questions


hey all,

if a player is using a reach weapon, and has mobs within 5 of him (standing adjacent) do those mobs get attacks of opportunity on the reach weilding character if hes attacking with reach past them ?


Nope, he's not doing anything that triggers an AoO. It isn't a ranged attack, it's still a normal melee attack.

Here's a link to a hilarious video that explains AoOs. I show this to all my gaming groups. After they are done laughing, they've also learned lots about AoOs. The link also explains some important basic issues surrounding reach weapons and tactics that are never actually mentioned in any rule book.
