[QUOTE="Toledo, post: 7126525, member: 6881873"] I really like the Mobile feat, so I asked the DM for some clarification on a few situations... 1) 5 wide corridor, 15’ high, a single medium size creature blocking the corridor. If I took the Mobile feat, my speed would be 40’. My strength is 16 (6’ high jump). Let’s say I strike first, so no Opportunity Attacks from the creature. Reading the rules, I believe the following would be legal and wouldn’t even have to take a DC – run back 10’, and run forward 10’ and jump over the creature. Here’s the math: Run back 10’ + run forward 10’ for speed (gets me to starting spot) +2.5’ to get to the end of my 5’x5’ control zone +5’ vertical jump over shoulder height +5’ vertical descent +5’ to clear opponents zone +2.5’ to center of my back side 5’x5’ zone = 40’. I’m now on the enemy’s back side! 2) I take a swing at a creature, run at a 45 degree angle, jump against a wall parkour style (see [URL]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TmyTaVSI9xQ[/URL] for an example 1:30 to 2:00) to turn a 90 degree angle and get to a creature’s back side. DM ruled to jump over the creature in option 1 would require a DC 25 with a pack, shield and breastplate, so not so likely. DM ruled that simple parkour in option 2 is okay with my gear. :) So I'm going with the Mobile feat and will let you know how it goes in a few weeks. Heck, if nothing else when I'm in trouble and if I can swing first, I can freely retreat past an ally and give the ally an Opportunity Attack. [/QUOTE]
