How do you counter massive amounts of Attacks of Opportunity?

Darth Sidious was more than just OK in melee. Yoda is considered one of the best swordsman ever in the Jedi Order and Sidious was his match. I am not that familiar with gestalt. But, I would say maybe like a Kensai and maybe Sorcerer? Looking through the powers of a Sith, they really don't...

Last time a player asked for a cohort from me, I gave him Joxer (from the Xena TV show).

Yeah, I disagree with the idea that the AoO has to take place before the movement. It seems to contradict exactly what is in the feat description. The AoO granted by Robilar's Gambit is not a normal AoO. It is an attack of opportunity, but unlike other AoO, it doesn't interrupt the action. By...

Right, there is one character who is 21, three who are 20 and one who is 19 (a cleric who doesn't mind spending XP for spells). Yeah, that is generally the situation. Characters A and B both have Robilar's and Character B has Sidestep. A attacks B, generating an AoO. B attacks A...

Yeah, if I run another 3.x campaign, I'll probably do that.

Yes, I am well aware of the loop. The players in my 2 year campaign are reaching 20th level and one just acquired Improved Combat Reflexes. And there are a couple of NPCs with this trait as well. One of the NPCs is an AoO specialist with Combat Reflexes, Karmic Strike, Double Hit, Robilar's...

How so? They both have the same trigger- when you make an attack, and both have the same resolution- after resolving the attack.

Robilar's Gambit: ......Resolve your attack of opportunity after your foe's attack. Sidestep: Once per round, when you make an attack of opportunity, you may take a 5- foot step after you attack. This 5-foot step doesn't count against your limit of one 5-foot step per round or against any...

Thanks for the help. The intent, is because I am an evil....evil DM... I am thinking of ways to drop stats below requirements for feats. In this particular case, to drop Dex below 21 to cause the loss of Improved Combat Reflexes for a combat or two.

Pretty much says it in the title, I am looking for a way (mainly with a weapon) to reduce dexterity (like -1 or more per hit or so).

I will be. It is a little late for the current game, I think, but in the future it will be banned.

True, but I was asking specifically if Magic Vestment could be cast on Luminous Armor.

How would it matter upon interpretation? If MV enchants clothing, the MV and the LA are each granting an armor bonus to AC, right? Yeah, as I started digging through his character and correcting things, he's started to feel like I am picking on him. I can't seem to get him to realize that if he...

What clothing? This is a VoP Wildshaped druid into bear/wolf form that has been giving me headaches for a while now.

The reason I would say it doesn't stack is that MV says - imbue a suit of armor. LA isn't a suit of armor. It says it looks like 'dazzling suit of full plate'. But, no where does it say that it is armor.

Do they stack? I wouldn't think so, since LA really isn't armor. Luminous Armor (Book of Exalted Deeds) Abjuration Level: Sanctified 2, Components: Sacrifice Casting Time: 1 standard action Range: Touch Target: One good creature touched Duration: 1 hour/level (D) Saving Throw: None...

Really? This is where you are going with this? Did you even bother read the thread or what I was using this as an example too? Honestly? Take your net rage elsewhere please.

Yeah, I see that now, along with several other books. I started this campaign almost 2 years ago, after not playing dnd for like 15 years or so. I ran rolemaster for a while during that time, but hadn't roleplayed in a while before that point. Going into the game, I was unfamiliar with the...

Actually, a lion is a feline and their shoulder structure is completely different than that of a canine. There is also a difference in the limbs themselves, but the main difference is in the shoulder, which is why cats do use their front paws for attacking and canines do not.
