Hey guys. (I give up) I was wondering if there was a feet that made it so you didn't provoke an AoO when entering a threatened square. (or exiting for that matter) I was thinking of it for a scout and thought something like that would be handy.
Note: For 3.5

You don't provoke an AoO for entering a threatened square, so there wouldn't be a feat stopping that. I'm not aware of one that stops AoO's for exiting threatened squares either, to be fair. Perhaps pumping tumble is the solution to your problem, or even something as simple as 5-foot steps.

*smacks forehead* sorry I'm a noob. Could've sworn that it provoked an AoO. (Then again my knowledge is based on a single strip of OotS so ya)

There are feats that provide defense against attacks of opportunity though. Mobility, etc...

Doesn't spring attack avoid AoO from one guy?

Ordinarily, an AoO is triggered for moving out of a threatened square, not moving into one. Thicket of Blades stance expands this to any movement, even a five-foot step, within a threatened area.

But, yes. Traditionally, the trick to avoiding an AoO is simply to pump your Tumble skill.

EDIT: If I recall, Mobility gives you a Dodge AC bonus against AoOs; it doesn't negate them.
