Could you ready an action to move if someone cast fireball? Sure But "The action occurs just before the action that triggers it", meaning that you move, and the caster can change his mind about where to aim it.Could you ready to move just before the explosion itself? That I don't see as being a viable condition for a readied action, though the rules are pretty vague on that.In any case, you would have to know the spell was coming, and make a pretty specific declaration when readying, which seems interesting as a thought experiment/corner case but hardly a viable tactic in most game situations. After all, if the caster does something else, you've just wasted your turn.</blockquote>
