[QUOTE="eamon, post: 3940533, member: 51942"] It's powerful for a 1st level ability. It's not that powerful at higher levels. You could mitigate by allowing at most 1 jaunt per class or caster level. In any case, an immediate action such as this happens before the action that triggered it. I wouldn't place any disadvantages on the attacker or whichever effect caused the wizard to jaunt. If the attacker is a ranged attacker, he can attack the wizard as normal for his new position. Ditto for spells. His new position might be more protected. A melee attacker probably can't attack any longer, but if he can reach the new location, he can. The real question is whether an effect (such as a melee attack) is wasted if you can't use it anymore after the jaunt. Since the effect doesn't say so specifically, I'd be inclined to say no; you can decide to do something else, instead, since other immediate effects specify this explicitly and since otherwise the jaunt is very powerful, but it's a little unclear to me.
