[QUOTE="NewJeffCT, post: 4876764, member: 10784"] I just wanted to clarify on this. In the Rules Compendium, if says you can take multiple AoOs against one opponent if they provoke more than one. From the Rules Compendium on Multiple Attacks of Opportunity, page 19: [i]"Some abilities allow you to make more than one AoO per round... if the same opponent provokes two AoOs from you, however, you could make two separate AoOs. Each provoking act represents a different opportunity. "[/i] So, in thinking that if your standard size Medium PC charged a size Huge bad guy with a 15 foot reach, Combat Reflexes and a Dex of at least 12, the bad guy would get one AoO when the PC closes from 15 feet to 10, and then another when the PC closes from 10 feet to 5. However, in this WotC article from 2004: [i]"Note that moving out of more than one threatened square during a turn counts as only one "opportunity" for the moving creature's foes (see page 138 in the Player's Handbook). If the character in the previous example moved and left three (or more) squares that you threaten and did nothing else that provokes attacks of opportunity from you, you'd get only one attack of opportunity against him.[/i] This seems to indicate this is not the case.

Any feats that would allow a huge or bigger bad guys to get multiple AoOs vs a charger? Thanks [/QUOTE]
