[QUOTE="Maxperson, post: 8432864, member: 23751"] He's not talking about positioning. He's talking about aiming up so you fall up at the end. That's more than just which way you are facing when you fall to the ground. Momentum doesn't stop. You are on the ground just the same as if you fell there. Impact happens just the same. All the misty step does is end the fall early at 20 feet instead of 50 feet. It's in the lack of momentum not being conserved. If it isn't written, it's not there. So we have RAW you are falling. RAW Misty Step moves you down 30 feet. And no RAW in Misty Step that stops the fall. Therefore at the end you are still falling and impact the ground where Misty Step deposited you. Misty Step doesn't end a fall, because it's not written that it does. Only what is written is RAW, so ending the fall with the spell is a house rule. You said it. You did not demonstrate it. To demonstrate it, you need RAW that explicitly says the fall ends if you cast a spell or RAW that explicitly says that Misty Step ends falls. Otherwise you just splat at the bottom of the Misty Step when the fall ends. And of course the falling rules don't allow you to cast Misty Step in any case. You fall 50 feet instantly. Then you can cast Misty Step. [/QUOTE]
