[QUOTE="Lopke_Quasath, post: 2377595, member: 25431"] In the last session we had a small fit over how to successfully conclude a chase without ending in a Constitution roll fest to see who fatigues first. In our session our barbarian was chasing down an orc cleric. They were on a road so the orc could run straight for a long stretch. Obviously the barbarian could catch up with his speed bonus, but once he was behind the orc, we couldn't find anything that would let him end the chase. To break it down, the orc would run, so 4x his speed or 120 feet (light armor). The barbarian would also run, and could easily keep up (160ft) but because running has to be in straight line (without extra feats) the barbarian ends up behind the orc with no actions left and the it repeats. No AoO because that first square isn't threatened. How can we conclude the chase, according to RAW, without Constitution checks and reach weapons (so the 2nd square the orc leaves would be threatened and thus an AoO from the barbarian)? Much obliged.
