Move back 4 squares and fire at the Badger in melee with Varg. Enjoy +1 to hit and damage, and a distinct lack of penalties for firing into melee.

((I'm confused. You're already in melee range. You're MC, Martijn is MR (I'll swap it to MdB for you and MV for him because this is still confusing me.

So what are you trying to do?))

((...

Move back without drawing an attack of opportunity to use my bow properly? Sorry about this, it's been awhile since I've done combat in 3.5e Pathfinder.))

[Sirus]

((I believe you can take a 5-foot-step away and not provoke an AoO, but I might be confusing that with D&D >.> ))

Take 5-Foot Step

You can move 5 feet in any round when you don't perform any other kind of movement. Taking this 5-foot step never provokes an attack of opportunity. You can't take more than one 5-foot step in a round, and you can't take a 5-foot step in the same round that you move any distance.

You can take a 5-foot step before, during, or after your other actions in the round.

You can only take a 5-foot-step if your movement isn't hampered by difficult terrain or darkness. Any creature with a speed of 5 feet or less can't take a 5-foot step, since moving even 5 feet requires a move action for such a slow creature.

You may not take a 5-foot step using a form of movement for which you do not have a listed speed.

You can use it as a free action if I'm reading this right, but only at certain points in the turn))

[Sirus]

((The fact that you can't use any other forms of movement in the same round tells me that it's more of a move action than a free action. I guess it's sort of a grey area.))

[Hanzoku]

((Sounds indeed like a move action given the restrictions, but you can attack and then step away which is nice))

((Then my rules lawyer is a sack of s***.

So is Mauricio going to move back and fire or is he going to point blank shot?))

[Hanzoku]

((I won't comment on what he's filled with, but I don't think you're even allowed to 5 foot step and then spend your standard action as movement in this setting from how that's written.))

[Sirus]

((Indeed. It quite clearly states that you cannot make any other moves in the same round that you 5fs.))

[USEC_OFFICER]

((5-ft step back and fire then. Ranged attacks draw AoO in melee, I'm 80% certain.))

[highmax28]

((5-ft step back and fire then. Ranged attacks draw AoO in melee, I'm 80% certain.))

((Pretty sure too. I'm starting to doubt my RL rules lawyer though))

Mauricio takes a step back and shoots an arrow at the badger! (13+3) Your second arrow flies true and strikes the badger in its side for (5+1) damage! The wounds it seems to have sustained seem lethal to most, but its still fighting!

The prone badger stands up and roars towards the big angry badger.

Martijn begins his turn!

((BTW I looked it up; 5-ft-steps are classified as a "miscellaneous action", which is basically anything not covered by standard, move, free, etc, and have unique rules. So that doesn't help much ))

((That's where I copied my thing from. Its bizarre and I'm starting to see why this might have been a bad idea...))

Flank BAB and sneak attack him with my daggers.
((By the way, I get a plus 2 on the attack. "a +2 trait bonus on one kind of combat maneuver when using that specific weapon." I don't know if I mentioned it, but I chose sneak attack for the manoeuvre.))

((Nah, it should be fine as long as we have good rules set up.))
