[QUOTE="Water Bob, post: 5554230, member: 92305"] Let me help you understand, then. :cool: When you are balancing, climbing, jumping, grappling, tripping, disarming, attacking, dodging, casting spells, drawing weapons, sneaking around, riding, dismounting, charging, running, and walking... ....you are not doing it while walking on your hands. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqNRZ5iVOJM&feature=related"]TUMBLE ATTACK[/ame] [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbsWHsiFQ84"]TUMBLING[/ame] I can certainly understand that someone spinning by you like that wold be immune to Attacks of Opportunity while moving through your threat range. That sucker would be hard to hit. What I can't fathom is this type of thing happening with the hero carrying gear and wearing armor, even if the character isn't encumbered. I'd like to stick a sword belt on one of these tumblers with a few pouches and what-not haning off it, plus a dagger or maybe a throwing axe--and slap a waterskin around their torso, then watch them tumble. Maybe their gear doesn't get thrown everywhere, but at least one of them will probably take a spill when the sword's scabbard flings between their legs at an inopportune moment during the tumble.
