I changed your emphsis here, Zhure, because I wanted to point something out here. According to this:A) Atatcking unarmed is exactily like attacking armed, with some exceptions. Note that thretened area is not covered. You thus threten unarmed. Also note that we can ignore Improved Unarmed Strike, Monks and natural weapons for this discussion, the're effectivly using weapons and not considered unarmed in the least.B) The reason you provoke the AoO is because you need to get close to an opponent. You provoke the AoO only againt the opponent you are attacking, but only if they are considered armed. If the're not, you don't.Logicaly, it sounds like you don't threaten any area with an unarmed strike. The rules only cover reach within increments of 5', and this almost sounds like the're trying to define an attack with no reach that you don't need to enter your opponents square to use, but still provokes an AoO due to entering your opponents square to use it. . . Yeah, that makes sesne. I'd have to agree with the sage, spirit of the rules says you don't threaten unarmed, dispite not needing to accualy enter an opponents space to make an unarmed attack. Letter of the rules is quite unclear.</blockquote>
