[QUOTE="Artoomis, post: 281274, member: 111"] [b]Re: Re: Spring Attack movement[/b] C'mon now - the question is whether you MUST move BOTH before and after the attack or not. Reading the feat through, it seems that the intent is that you move, attack and move ("springing" in and out). The Sage, however, ruled that you do not need to move BOTH before and after - a rather significant ruling, actually. The mere fact that perhaps you were thinking along the sames lines as the Sage in no way makes the ruling more obvious to those who were thinking that "moving in this way" meant BOTH before and after the attack. The Sage's ruling seem to me to be wrong, in fact - that's how non-obvious this ruling is. It seems to me the feat states: When you make a normal single attack + move action, you can move both before and after the attack with this feat - and if you do so, you gain the additional benefit of avoiding an AoO from the one you attacked. I think that was the intent of this feat. The Sage has ruled otherwise - but it was not the obvious choice at all.. [/QUOTE]
