[QUOTE="GreyVulpine, post: 4885955, member: 84790"] As we all know, moving out of a threatened square provokes an Attack of Opportunity. This is all explained in great detail in the 2d grid/battlemap setting. Are there any rules for AoOs in 3d combat? Do monsters threaten the area above them, as well as around? Say you're fighting a efreeti/ghost/air elemental or any other monster with flying and perfect manuverability, would it provoke an AoO if it flew straight up, trying to get away from the fight? As a wizard, if you cast levitate or fly on an ally, would they provoke an AoO if they flew upwards/away? Say you cast gust of wind, and it blows an enemy across one of your ally's threatened squares, would it provoke an AoO? If I cast [URL="http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/iw/20041015b&page=6"]Defenestrating Sphere[/URL], a spell that deals damage, knocks an enemy prone, and flings them upwards, and direct it at an enemy that one of my allies is fighting, would the enemy provoke an AoO as it's flung upwards and away from the battle? -GV [/QUOTE]
