Message: <blockquote data-quote="Daedrova" data-source="post: 1878107" data-attributes="member: 11835">A character will provoke an Attack of Opportunity only from those who threaten and detect him while performing a certain action.  In most circumstances an invisible creature will not provoke an AoO.  The scent ability allows the creature to adequately pinpoint the location of an invisible character who, as would a spot check DC 40.In either case (scent or spot) you must still question if the Attacker would be able to properly detect the provoking action itself.  Can the dire wolf “smell” the character getting up from prone?  I doubt it, and that would be poor reason to allow the wolf to take an AoO against the player.  The wolf being able to hear the action might be more reasonable, but still arguable as to if could properly hear such a thing (could be determined by a Listen check), or if hearing the character in such a way allow/cause the wolf to know that the character is performing such an action (provoking of AoOs) regardless.An intelligent creature/character might be able to tell that an action he could here but not see would provoke an AoO, but that is up to you as DM to determine.  Ultimately, if you believe all conditions to be in favor of granting the AoO, it would suffer the 50% miss chance.</blockquote>
