[QUOTE="Nichwee, post: 5491721, member: 84242"] Except if the chasm/fire occupy a whole space you can't diagonal around them, and if it doesn't then it is the same as when I run along the street and jump a few feet (this in reality is less than the 5ft to another square) to the side to step round a big puddle while taking a 90% straight line. If the puddle is actually 5ft wide I slow up and go around just like the D&D PCs have to, or I go for a jump just like the PCs do. It allows going the 3 diagonals to the left followed by 3 diagonals to the right to skip an OA, but if there is only one guy even vaguely in the way (so there is room for this tactic without provoking from anoyone else) well things are probably not desperate enough for it to be major (especially as almost all healing is ranged so if you are within your speed you are probably able to solve almost any problem that could be an issue regardless of only a single enemy left in the area. (I stress not every problem, but almost any I expect to show up more than once in a purple moon* - I would say a blue moon but I think they are too common for this type of effect). *A purple moon would be a Blue Moon in February (the red, or pink,-est of months, and also the shortest - so minimum chance :P).
