[QUOTE="Kahlenar, post: 3388347, member: 50542"] I really have to get something clear here. I read over some of the threads about Attacks of Opportunity (AOOs) and it seems that generally people allow people to make trip attacks as attacks of opportunity. If I could get a quick thought on that while I move to more difficult matters. So, Improved Trip allows for 3 things. Don't provoke attacks, +4 on trip checks, and it allows you to make an attack at the BAB you just used to trip your target (then you can continue with your other attacks at lower BABs including making more trips). My question is if you have Imp Trip and trip someone as an AOO, do you then get to make an attack against them as part of the attack of opportunity. Basically, since Imp Trip gives you the successful trip attack back it seems like you could, except the AOOs would then seems a bit broken. Just as a side note, if all this is possible, then, since standing up provokes an AOO, wouldn't it be possible to keep someone eternally tripped AND get an extra attack each round against them, all at the attacking prone bonus? I would love this, but it seems a bit overpowering, especially with combat reflexes, you could immobilize multiple opponents while hitting all of them. Just wondering, thanks for any feedback.
