[QUOTE="Lyxen, post: 8579473, member: 7032025"] I'm sorry, but once more the sentence is complete, and you only have trouble with it if you cut it apart: "Teleportation and planar travel fail to work in the sphere, whether the sphere is the destination or the departure point for such magical travel." Clearly, teleportation and planar travel are magical travel, as such they have an origin and a destination, and they FAIL TO WORK if either the origin or destination is IN the sphere. I don't know how make it clearer. It works perfectly, the destination is a target of the spell. Just read the description of the spell, in your opinion, what does "on target", "off target" mean ? It's exactly the destination of the spell, and it's the target of the spell (at least one of them, in plain english). So read with me the Xanathar paragraph: "A spell specifies what a caster can target with it: any type of creature, a creature of a certain type (humanoid or beast, for instance), an object, [B][U]an area[/U][/B], the caster, or something else. But what happens if a spell targets something that isn’t a valid target? If you cast a spell on someone or something that can’t be affected by the spell, nothing happens to that target, but if you used a spell slot to cast the spell, the slot is still expended." The destination of the teleport is the target (that you try to be on, but could be off), and it's invalid. Nothing happens and you expended the spell slot. Of course, but the guidance is pretty clear above. [/QUOTE]
