[QUOTE="Maxperson, post: 8582472, member: 23751"] More Red Herrings. Unless you can prove that my PC cannot by RAW walk or crawl away from the blast area in-between the disappearance and the both the thunder and reappearance(your version of ready action), then you fail to prove your position. All of this, "The DM would be within his rights to say no" and "it doesn't have to mean walking" and "He could have walked during his turn before the ready action." are just deflections. None of that matters, because we are discussing RAW, not DM house rules or what someone else might have done. By your RAW reading of Readied Actions it does. Your deflections don't alter that fact. Let's go over the facts as you have stated them. 1) You say that Ready allows you to interrupt a teleport in the middle by stating "When the caster disappears." This would happen before the thunder goes off and re-appearance. 2) Ready allows me to move however I see fit. 3) I declare that I'm going to crawl 15 feet away when the caster disappears. 4) When my crawling is done, I am now 20 feet away from where the caster disappeared. 5) Since my Readied Action is done, the thunder now goes off and then the caster re-appears, after having been held in limbo while I crawled away. All of those is by the books legal(according to your interpretation of RAW). That makes it wrong for the DM to slam me on it, ESPECIALLY since you have argued repeatedly in this thread that the game doesn't have to make sense. [/QUOTE]
