[QUOTE="Dash Dannigan, post: 725982, member: 6306"] Okay, reading comprehension eh? Alright buddy, according to the chart "pick up an item" provokes an attack of opportunity. You of course are assuming this remains correct in ALL situations then (well how about just prone then)? I, of course, don't assume this hence my interpretation. You want clear then? Here's clarity for you: You've already made the assumption that everything on chart 8-4 is correct for all situations then (at least for being prone that is). Thus you would allow me to do the following actions while prone without provoking an AoO: mount a horse open a door draw a weapon (which I am laying on top of because I am prone) loose a shield ready a shield All of these are under move-equivalent and according to you I can all perform while prone and receive no AoO. You know you're right, that's very clear. I don't know what I was thinking. Yeah, let's do it like that, afterall if we didn't we'd be "house-rulin'". That's such a great idea, while my character is prone he'll draw a weapon and ready a shield, while the poor guy in your game fumbles for a weapon laying on the ground next to him and gets an AoO. Heh, brilliant. Why didn't I see it before? I must have been blinded by its genius. :D [i]edit-note, this post contains heavy sarcasm, have a nice day[/i] :p [/QUOTE]
