[QUOTE="Primitive Screwhead, post: 2909271, member: 20805"] I read that a 5' step into an opponents square does not draw an AoO *if* the opponent is at least 2 sizes apart *and* the action accompanying the movement does not state it draws an AoO {Bullrush, etc..} What this does not answer is how a Tiny Creature can attack a Small Creature sans Spring Attack or Fly-by-Attack... The closest answer I can see to RAW is to move into the targets square {possibly drawing an AoO unless this is a 5' Step}..suffering the 'squeezing' penalty for sharing a space with a creature not 2 sizes apart when you attack..then at the end of the round being 'bumped' back to your original space {drawing an AoO for this involuntary movement while still suffering the AC penalty from squeezing} This makes it pretty hazardous for a Tiny character as a single attack could potentially draw two... Or, you could just give all your Pixies reach weapons :) [/QUOTE]
