Can your Attack of Oppotunity be a Melee Touch Attack?

[Wakrob]

The rules say if you have a Touch spell at the ready you are considered armed. And if you are armed you can make Attacks of Op.

So could you use a Touch spell that is at the ready to make a AoO with a Melee Touch Attack?

I'm pretty sure you can, yes. As mentioned, you are armed with the held charge.

Cool, I just wasnt sure if Melee Attack and Melee Touch Attack were synonymous.

[Saethori]

They're not synonymous but all melee touch attacks are melee attacks.

If the spell has already been cast, and you are holding a charge, yes. Because by the rules, that's effectively wielding a weapon.

Seems especially fun with Frostbite or Chill Touch and Combat Reflexes.
Edit: Even better, Touch of Blindness!
