[QUOTE="Lyxen, post: 8582426, member: 7032025"] Not exactly, though: "Every character has a speed, which is the distance in feet that the character can walk in 1 round." So it's completely the other way around, actually. If you walk, you will move your speed in a round. That's all it says. But if you take a move action and move your speed, it does NOT mean walking, as demonstrated many times over, with standard actions and readied ones. You could but that would not get you out of the blast, which was the whole point to start with. But note that this has NOTHING to do with Thunder Step. For example, readying an action to move out of a trap door if the orc leader reaches for the lever commanding it would "logically" fail as well, and this is as mundane a readied action as you can find. And a DM's response would be exactly the same: "If you ready a run, you will make it, if you crawl on your ass, you won't". See above, this is an abuse of the readied action description, not a problem with Thunder Step and teleportation, and it comes from people gaming the system rather than using the (RAW) basic action loop.
