Okay, had another unusual moment come up in our Death's Reach excursion this evening.
I was fighting the Death Knight, who was mounted on a Wyvern. I had picked the Death Knight for the target of my attack. I critted. I've got a couple of crit enhancing feats, so I knocked him prone and he was dazed. Now I'm using twin hammers with Two-Weapon Opening, so I get a second, free action attack (MBA). Now according to the rules we could find, the rider when knocked prone, gets a saving throw. He makes it, he stays in the saddle. He fails, off he goes, to an adjacent square of *his* choice. Now the question is, since the attack granted by TWO is a *free action* MBA, and free actions are supposed to happen near instantly, could the rider choose an adjacent square that put him out of reach of the free action attack before it hit him?
We had a lot of mixed opinions about this around our table.
Thanks gang.
