[QUOTE="Lyxen, post: 8433767, member: 7032025"] No, resolving the attack is a purely technical process that is NOT perceivable. Unless of course your PCs see giant dices roll in the sky, which would not surprise me in your campaign considering your views... However, thanks for confirming that the problem is that you have such a technical vision of the game that someone swinging a sword at you is only an attack sequence (which can still be interrupted, as demonstrated time and time again). And you have again failed to prove that I can't use even the start of a swing to trigger an interrupt, so once more, RAW : "First, you decide what perceivable circumstance will trigger your reaction." Is swinging a sword a perceivable circumstance, yes or no ? Should be a very simple answer... And here you go, just shows ou have not even read the attack sequence in the PH. Is the hit the end of the attack sequence ? Please think carefully about your answer... But at least, you have dropped the silly line of "deflect arrow winding back time", so again, why can't a misty step reaction do exactly what a simple deflect missile does and prevent a hit ? This does not even make the smallest bit of sense, why don't you try posting bits of the RAW that support your claim (although I know why you don't) ? [/QUOTE]
