May 3, 2019 at 12:24 comment added Oblivious Sage @Zoma Any creature can use the rule from my first quote to make an opportunity attack; they do not need any particular feat, class, or special ability. Some feats and abilities allow creatures to make attacks of opportunity in other situations, but they will explicitly describe those situations.
May 3, 2019 at 6:23 comment added Zoma I don't want to create a new question and get tagged as a dupe, so I ask for clarity here: given this answer, does any PC at melee range can take opportunity attack when an enemy leave their reach? Or do they need a feat or something like it?
Jul 20, 2018 at 11:23 comment added vonBoomslang I'd like it if the part about the major change from 3.5/4 to 5 (IE, moving within threat) was changed, since that greatly changes Reach.
Oct 11, 2017 at 19:32 comment added KorvinStarmast This answer would be better if you pointed out that you have to have not already used your reaction during that round/turn. (It is otherwise quite well presented). If you have already used a reaction then you can't make an opportunity attack until the next round/turn.
Dec 18, 2016 at 20:46 comment added MrCharles I'd suggest a brief disclaimer at the end; only Polearm Master and War Caster currently modify opportunity attacks. Polearm Master lets you make one as an enemy enters your reach with certain weapons, while War Caster lets you cast a spell instead of making one. All other Feats technically let you make similar attacks that aren't opportunity attacks using your reaction.
