[QUOTE="Aura, post: 6816875, member: 6747658"] [b]Ogremage battle round 5[/b] Barlo begins his roll-out maneuver to get himself out of the narrow alleyway. Drawing his whip, his giant foe seizes upon the opportunity to cut him down. However, as the monster hefts his giant blade, Vincenzo connects with arrows and Taniwha delivers a vicious bite, and the stricken corpse hits the dull grey ground, kicking up on dust. Seeing his comrade in arms fall, the larger of the two screams angrily at the lot of you. With Maui all over him, he switches to a one hand grip on his blade and casts a spell, taking care not to leave himself open while doing so. The effect is immediate--the giant disappears from where he is floating. Nothing but a quick flowing air current appears to be left.

Spellcraft DC 17 to identify what it was. No further information available on his action. [sblock=DC 17 Spellcraft]Invisibility, level 2.[/sblock] [sblock=Maui]Your actions have been complex, and I had to check a couple things: (1) As you suspected, you cannot trip flying foes. It's actually at the end of the section on Trip in Core. (2) Not so obviously, you don't get your free action abilities (grab, trip) on attacks of opportunity, I'm afraid. Free actions are only available during your turn. To use those abilities on AoO's, they would have to be Immediate actions to use. And while taking a fall as large size or more, the net distance dropped is still the primary determinant on damage. You can use your size to your advantage with a move action as I previously described, but if you just run off the side, you'll need an acrobatics check to offset the damage (or end up taking it). I'm sorry, most of that is rather a bummer. Despite your frustrating rolls, you did great. The whole team did. :)[/sblock] [U]Combat Actors[/U] Smaller Giant: dead Larger Giant: 51 damage (AC 25, touch 14, CMD 33, SR 21) flying?
