Message: <blockquote data-quote="SpellObjectEnthusiast" data-source="post: 9848606" data-attributes="member: 7031017">As some examples of early game complexity.  How do you draw a weapon or potion?In PF1: you can draw a weapon as a move action, which means you can't move during your turn.  But, if you have a BAB of +1 (like a level 1 fighter), you can draw a weapon as a free action during a move action in which you make regular movement.  Drawing any item other than a weapon always takes a move action.  Drinking a potion is a standard action.In PF2: drawing a weapon requires 1 Interact action.  Drawing a potion is 1 Interact action, drinking a potion is one Interact action.How do you avoid opportunity attacks?In PF1: You can make a 5 foot step instead of using a move action to move, and avoid opportunity attacks.  This is not a swift or a free action, its a special thing you can do.  You can't take more than one 5-foot step in a round, and you can't take a 5-foot step in the same round that you move any distance. You can take a 5-foot step before, during, or after your other actions in the round.In PF2: You can Step to avoid opportunity attacks.  Stepping takes one action and moves you 5 feet.What triggers an opportunity attack?In PF1:  All creatures have opportunity attacks.  You trigger an opportunity attack whenever you move out of someone's reach or take a provoking action.  Consult this list when you take an action (or memorize it) to see if you provoke: <a href="https://roll20.net/compendium/pathfinder/Actions%20In%20Combat#h-Actions%20In%20Combat" target="_blank">Roll20 - Compendium and Rule Set Directory</a>In PF2: Fighters and some monsters have opportunity attacks.  You trigger an opportunity attack when using a manipulate action or a move action, making a ranged attack, or leaving a square during a move action when within a creature's reach.</blockquote>
