[QUOTE="Traveon Wyvernspur, post: 5967787, member: 73201"] Yep, [URL="https://sites.google.com/site/pathfinderogc/feats/combat-feats/step-up-combat---final"]Step Up[/URL] allows for a character to step up to 5 feet at any point in their turn and follow who they are fighting, which would allow an AOO if the enemy stepped back to drink a potion and the character stepped up. This takes the place of your 5-ft step on your turn though. [URL="https://sites.google.com/site/pathfinderogc/feats/combat-feats/following-step-combat"]Following Step[/URL] allows up to 10 feet of movement and the same with the AOO if they provoke it by drinking the potion. [URL="https://sites.google.com/site/pathfinderogc/feats/combat-feats/step-up-and-strike-combat"]Step Up & Strike[/URL] allows for the character to get an immediate follow and AOO because the enemy tried to move away. This would also allow for a second AOO with the [URL="https://sites.google.com/site/pathfinderogc/feats/combat-feats/combat-reflexes-combat"]Combat Reflexes[/URL] feat if the same character that moved drank the potion. See: [B]Provoking an Attack of Opportunity[/B]: Two kinds of actions can provoke attacks of opportunity: moving out of a threatened square and performing certain actions within a threatened square. [I]Moving[/I]: Moving out of a threatened square usually provokes attacks of opportunity from threatening opponents. There are two common methods of avoiding such an attack—the 5-foot step and the withdraw action. [I]Performing a Distracting Act[/I]: Some actions, when performed in a threatened square, provoke attacks of opportunity as you divert your attention from the battle. Table: Actions in Combat notes many of the actions that provoke attacks of opportunity and I think it would also allow another AOO if the enemy drinks the potion with the attacker having Combat Reflexes and being able to do more than one AOO per round.
