[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 3333640, member: 22779"] While that is factually true, it's not really so in play. Yes, at lower levels, I have to travel from A to B in a fairly mundane way. However, since the DM is completely in control of my destination, the fact that I suddenly can teleport or plane shift doesn't really matter. I'm still travelling from A to B. The DM is still (mostly) telling me to go from where I am to where he wants me to be. About the only real difference is the ability to go back to places you've already been. Something that is mentioned in the Savage Tide AP is that once the PC's leave Sasserine, they aren't going to come back unless they choose to do so themselves, perhaps on a magic item buying run or something like that. However, as far as an adventure goes, my destination is almost always determined by the DM who will also determine how many random events will occur from A to B (Always only ONE!). All teleport or Plane Shift really does is knock out some random encounters. [/QUOTE]
