Hey, curious about a feature for the Swarmkeeper ranger.
You can, once per turn, cause your swarm to do something after you hit a creature.
One of those is
"You are moved by the swarm up to 5ft horizontally in any direction of your choice."
Now, it's not that great of a movement....cause you know, it's just 5ft and I honestly don't know when or how this could even be remotely be useful in combat, and I feel it should be the same as you moving the target of the attack 15ft, but I digress.
When this movement happens, let's say you're in melee, does it provoke an attack of opportunity since you're "technically" not using your movement speed?
I want to lean towards yes, but that's why I came here.
Appreciate the insight.
