Sliding and OA's ?

First Post
The Monk reckons he's going to be sliding a lot of enemy around 2 squares.
Says up to 4 per turn but that sounds a bit much, I know he can do 1, and likely there is something that will let him do 2.

If he slides them into or past other PC's is there anything that will let us get OA's ???

As usually forced movement doesnt provoke them.

Forced movement never provokes attacks of opportunity and forced movement cannot be through occupied squares.
 


Epic level centered breath monks can slide any adjacent enemy whenever they hit something.

You cannot slide an enemy through a square they cannot walk through (i.e. their enemies.)

There's no way to turn a slide into an opportunity attack, as sliding negates all opportunity actions.

there is a feat, where if "You" are slid adjacent to an enemy you get to make an OA on them.

Our Monk says that his attack that slides someone could in fact damage and slide one of us into an adjacent enemy, that his attack can be on us and not just enemy - is that right ?
And works if the PC had Resist 5 on him as well.

And if he slid one of us adjacent to 3 enemies, we get OA on all 3 ???

Whole thing seems a bit far fetched !!!
 

Going off the top of my head here, but I believe centered breath targets enemies, so you would not be able to move your allies with it.

(otherwise, it would hit everyone around you when you used the epic version, whether you wanted to or not)

If you are slid next to multiple enemies, you still can only make one Opportunity Action per turn. This always applies, whether it's 1 enemy, or 100 enemies.

The targets for Flurry of Blows varies with tier:

Target: One creature
Level 11: One or two creatures
Level 21: Each enemy adjacent to you

Draco is correct, but I wanted to add clarification about 'turn.' The rule is really: "Once per Combatant’s Turn: You can take no more than one opportunity action on each other combatant’s turn. You can’t take an opportunity action on your own turn."

Ah, thank you. (Haven't found my PHB3 yet since the move. Argh.)

So the answer then is... you can shove them around up to level 20, but after that, you can't/
