[QUOTE="WalterKovacs, post: 5568814, member: 63763"] The idea isn't that they only trigger one opportunity attack from an opponent, but that they only get one per turn. If, for example, an enemy had multiple turns (i.e. a solo) it could provoke on OA on each of those turns. Or, if a warlord gave someone a free attack on his turn, that attack my cause on OA, etc. So: Immediate action 1/round (a full initiative loop) and OA is 1/turn (each character or monster gets 1 turn. Even if you group all the same type of monster to a single initiative, they each technically get their own turn, and thus could give the PCs a chance to OA them). In the case of the monster vs. the PCs ... each of the PCs have their own turn [There are weird situations where people ready actions so that they occur during someone else's turn to avoid OAs and the like, but that's an exception). A creature can take a free action to use an attack power only once per turn, so it could use one on each turn (like with OA's) but it would be in addition to OAs. [/QUOTE]
