Doing so forced you to move through its threatened area, thus provoking the AoO.When the goblin runs past the fighter, it takes its MEA to move. Having done so, it turns out that it had to go through the fighter's threatened area (3 squares in this case), thus it provokes an AoO.This was the point I was trying to make with my "postumous AoO" example using the mage casting a spell then moving 30 feet. The move, once completed, determines if there is an AoO or not. Maybe it wasn't the most clear of examples, but I hope the end-around finally got me into the end-zone. Here's hoping.</blockquote>
