A question about Spring Attack

[Stalker0]

I have a question about a possible use for spring attack. The official text in the PH says you can move, attack, and then move again. Attacking in this way does not provoke an attack of oppurtunity.

Does this mean I stand next to an opponent, move around him (possibly to get in a flanking position) attack, and then move again?

You sure can. Here's the feat in simple terms. You can move however you want, and the target of your attack does not get any AoOs against you because of your movement. Your movement, however, can still provoke AoOs from others that are not the target of your Spring Attack.

A correction

Sorry, my question wasn't if it was possible, my question was if that provoked an AOO.

Not from the creature you attack. If you leave other creatures' theatened spaces, then yes.

Wow, I'm glad I ran across this thread. I had never reailized that. Should be useful.

Then you're welcome, because I answered that too.
