- Mechanic to discourage {pillar dancing}. If you move away from an adjacent hostile monster, and it moves toward you, it gets a 1/3 chance of launching a free attack against you (which can miss as usual). New in 0.29, replacing {random energy}. Terms and conditions in following entries.
- Doesn't apply if the monster is confused, incapacitated, fleeing, unable to see you, delayed (eg due to a slow ogre swing) & unable to follow you, self-destructing (eg ballistomycete spores), OR if you're doing a Wu Jian martial move or Serpent's Lash.
- Attacks of opportunity mostly work like normal attacks, but in 0.30 and prior, they couldn't trigger some special effects that caused bugs, eg phantoms' AF_BLINK_WITH. Reaching monsters (eg polearm monsters) didn't get reaching opportunity attacks, just the usual ones from adjacency.
