[QUOTE="MThibault, post: 1069526, member: 7971"] Can I emphasize that you don't take Attacks of Opportunity from the opponent you attack when you use Spring Attack. Even if you don't spring away again, it is useful at any level for closing with creatures who have reach. Tumble is still better in that it works against multiple opponents, but Spring Attack is cheap for a fighter with tons of bonus feats and Mobility is a prerequisite so if there are two giants, you will have a +4 AC against the AoO from the other one. I've seen this feat used a lot in my campaigns. Monks, Bards and Rogues use it to jump in and out of melee (and if you only move 30 feet, you can still end up 10 feet away, as long as the opponent doesn't have reach). Fighters (mostly) and the odd ranger or barbarian uses it to close with opponents with reach. It is at least as popular as Great Cleave in my campaigns. Cheers [/QUOTE]
