There's a short list, but it was also intentionally vague. There's actually a lot of leeway left up to the GM, which I like. But generally, a lot of things that did provoke AOOs no longer do (e.g., using a ranged weapon in melee.)
Olgar Shiverstone said:But that's the baseline list from 3E, too. The additions are in things like the spcial attacks rules (grapples, sunder, etc, etc).
If I recall correctly, the Grab/Grapple actions do not provoke attacks of opportunity in Saga. Sunder doesn't really exist in Saga. (That's basically targeting a possessed object and attacking it, which is really difficult to do.)
Disarm is interesting. Pretty standard rules for disarming. Attempting a disarm does not provoke an AOO according to the AOO rules. However, it does note under the Disarm rules that your opponent gets to attack you if you attempt a disarm, unless you have the Improved Disarm feat. So while it's not technically an AOO, the intent is the same.
But Saga is a different game. And while I'm sure we'll see some crossover when 4e comes out, I have a feeling it's going to look pretty different in a lot of ways.
