D&D General I Just Want To Teleport and Stab Things

[Hawk Diesel]

In a word, no.

Teleportation is not comperable to playing a dragon.

Walking is not teleporting.

Clearly see things differently. Good luck finding a way to play in a way that is satisfying for you and your table.

I'm fine with a bonus action teleport that doesn't use your movement, or a teleport that uses your movement,

I mean, cartographer IS teleport using your movement. So I'm still not sure why you don't like it.


But if you still provoked opportunity attacks, and require a clear line of effect, then you could probably have unlimited teleport as movement as an origin feat.
Then go monk to be fast, or possibly Wild Hear barbarian.

Because it is funky and idiosyncratic in a way that only really makes sense for a support character, and it is a B tier weapon user at best.

Why? This thread has shown that a less restricted low level at-will teleport with a short range isnt overpowered. Why would i accept a "teleport" that suffers opportunity attacks and requires line of effect? What benefit would that even have? That is worse than "just describe you movement as telporting. At least that idea doesnt cost anything.

Seems pretty straightforward. You spend movement and teleport.
With a bonu distance to teleport to allies.

Wanting more stabbing i understand.

For a rogue, who already spend their level 2 on avoiding OA's, then the upgrade to avoid difficult terrain isn't overpowered.

For a origin feat to avoid all OA's, avoiding difficult terrain, and utility of jumping though keyholes and over chasms, it's a bit much.

It's not "at-will teleport at low levels is broken"
It's "at-will teleport is worth more than 1 level".


Side question... if your holding a 10' rope tied to a rock, and teleport 30' away... what happens?

So dont do it as an origin feat?

No, it isnt. It is in line with what most classes get in their levels 1-3 package, or what a subclass gets at level 3.

Up to the dm.
