Tumble/AoO Question

Crust

First Post
Hi, folks. This might sound like a noobish question, but I'll ask nonetheless:

Could a rogue or scout, while within an opponent's threat range, tumble through or past that opponent without provoking an attack of opportunity? In other words, if someone trained in tumble is locked in melee combat with a foe, could that individual tumble out of the threatened square (to perhaps engage another foe) without provoking an attack of opportunity from the original opponent?

Could that PC use a 5-foot step THEN tumble away without provoking an attack?

Tumbling to avoid AoO's is what the skill is used for (among other things), so yes.

You can't take a 5' step and then move. You have to do one or the other.
