[QUOTE="Sezarious, post: 6587846, member: 6792106"] A human fighter has the sentinel feat and a whip. He stands in a dungeon corridor 25ft wide in the centre. Any enemy that moves down the left or right hand side, trying to get past the fighter will provoke an attack of opportunity from him unless they choose to disengage right? Lets say though that the enemy is a Minotaur and decides to try and charge the fighters wizard companion who is positioned down the corridor on the left with the fighter between them. Declaring a charge is a bonus action, so it needs it's action to attack at the end of the charge. The Minotaur can either disengage from the fighter as it passes him, but then it has used all it's actions, or it can let the fighter try to hit. If the fighter misses, Minotaur proceeds as normal. If the fighter hits though, he reduces it's speed to 0. My question is, in the above scenario if the Minotaur decides to risk being hit, would it also lose it's action, which was declared in its bonus action as a charge, or could it potentially turn and try and hit the fighter with its action? Sorry about the wording all. I felt that painting a scenario was the best way to ask the question and even then. :/ [/QUOTE]
