Optional Attack of Opportunity

We will file suggestions here that did not make the cut. Don't expect detailed responses, but the most common reasons are:

  • implementing the suggestion is impractical, or too much work for the gain
  • the suggestion is thematically against our design philosophy
  • the suggestion is too detailed/low-level
    Keep your suggestions broad and focused on RP benefits, please, not detailed suggestions of how to fix everything.

Optional Attack of Opportunity

Post by Security_Blanket »

My suggestion is to add an option to disable Attacks of Opportunity on characters. For some characters it doesn't make any sense. Why would a low BAB character caster waste a perfectly good round attempting to jab someone with their staff rather than cast a spell, even if there was an opening? I've even seen AoO abused by players where they would equip a sling, firing off rocks at point blank range to force an AoO and mess with the caster's tactics.
