Provoke using Gaze of Defiance gives +3

[MatthewH86]

Hello

If my Cleric was to use Gaze of Defiance at point blank range and hence provoke from the target, and I managed to hit the target, would that then give all allies the +3 bonus to hit the target rather than +1 since it attacked me before the end of my next turn?

Or would the provoked attack not qualify to give the +3 bonus to all allies because it is resolved before my provoking Gaze of Defiance attack is resolved?

The OA happens before you attack, as it is an interrupt... so technically no.

That said, that's a nice ballsy move, so I might give it to you anyway.
