Anyways...What Seven Fates Archer Path states verbatim is this:Opportunity Shot(16th level): Whenever you can make an opportunity attack, you can make a ranged basic attack in place of a melee basic attack. Your attack doesn't provoke opportunity attacks.Now, my (and other members of my group) best interpretation of that description is that you are making a ranged Opportunity Attack. Period. It says that your attack doesn't provoke opportunity attacks in return (whether they come from the one being attacked, or his friends) because your action *is* an OA, it would be a silly never-ending chain of attacks back and forth if ranged OA's provoked OA's as well. Now whether or not Heavy Blade Opportunity will work with this exploit is up for grabs...probably not just simply because of the over-cheese factor.Neither Opportunity Shot, nor Reaving Axe Slayer state anything about being adjacent to the enemy. You may interpret that to include the assumption that you must be adjacent as per the 'normal' Opportunity Attack rules, but these are not 'normal' OA's. They are OA's specifically provoked by an enemy standing up immediately after being knocked down by the Reaving Axe Slayer feat. Maybe they will errata the feat/Paragon Path to further clarify them, maybe they won't, but as they both are currently stated it could be interpreted either way...</blockquote>
