Jabbing Dancer and AoO's

[kurohyou]

I have a few questions about jabbing dancer.

Jabbing Dancer:

Prerequisite(s): Dodge, Improved Unarmed Strike, Jabbing Style, Mobility; base attack bonus +9, brawler level 5th, or monk level 5th.

Benefit: Each time you hit with an unarmed strike while using Jabbing Style, you can move 5 feet without provoking an attack of opportunity as long as you move to a space adjacent to the opponent you hit with the unarmed strike. If you use this feat, you cannot take a 5-foot step during your next turn.

Could I choose to provoke an attack of opportunity on the movement rather than making the move without provoking?

Is moving the 5-ft considered an action to move?

If I make multiple attacks using Flurry of Blows or TWF (say a +10/+10, +5/+5 set of TWF and iterative attacks) do I take the movement after each attack (4 total, once after each attack) or just after each iterative attack (2 total, once after both +10's resolved and once after both +5's)?

I think that's it for the questions.

Thanks

If you're using this feat, then the 5' movements don't provoke, because it's worded that way. You don't have the option to let it provoke.

It's not a move action. It is, however, movement taking as part of another action.

As the feat says, you may take this movement after every unarmed strike that lands while using jabbing style, and must move to a space adjacent to the creature you hit if you choose to do so. Seems like you can even take this movement if you hit with an AoO with an unarmed strike, etc.

Thanks Byakko,

That's what I thought, but I was hoping it wasn't true so I could avoid taking circling mongoose for a build idea I've got. Oh well
