[QUOTE="drnuncheon, post: 178421, member: 96"] He is both grappled and tripped - he's prone and he can't move. Defender Prone gives a +4 to hit. Also, if a character is grappled, they lose their dex bonus vs. characters that are not grappling them. So their AC is essentially their flat-footed AC, and attackers get +4 to hit them. I believe the grapple referred to in the bolas is a grapple & pin, yes. "No Dexterity Bonus: A character loses it's Dexterity bonus to AC (if a it has one) against opponents a it isn't grappling. (A character can still use the bonus against opponents the character is grappling.)" Grapples provoke AoOs, but it is not clear that trying to escape from one does. However, since it's listed under Grapple, and you are making grapple checks, my inclination is to say that it would indeed provoke AoOs. See above for the effect on his AC. Trying to unwrap rope from your legs is probably harder than giving a potion to an unconscious person. I'd say it provokes AoOs. No - while you are grappled by the bolas you can still roll around and otherwise dodge. The only way you would effectivelyhve a 0 dex is if you were completely motionless. J [/QUOTE]
