Hello peeps
I was in the thick of trying to understand the Darkness spell and Shadow of Moil (not in conjunction, just as is) and I noticed that some people say that heavy obscurement prevents opportunity attacks due to the following clause:
You can make an opportunity attack when a hostile creature that you can see moves out of your reach.
PHB 195: Opportunity Attacks. Emphasis mine.
Did you know this? Is this true?
So Shadow of Moil gives you advantage on attack rolls, enemies have disadvantage on attack rolls against you, AND you can walk around freely without triggering opportunity attacks?
Invisibility also stops opportunity attacks, instead of just disadvantage on the attack roll?
Darkness/Fog Cloud can let entire groups walk through hordes of enemies without triggering opportunity attacks?
