[QUOTE="Lyxen, post: 8585771, member: 7032025"] No, sorry, I will point them out to you CLEARLY in the spell description: [ATTACH type="full"]154367[/ATTACH] Again, prove it. Where is it said, in the rules ? Do you have to me somewhere ? Are we not talking about magic here ? Can't you just disappear from a place and appear an instant later somewhere else ? No, I claim that the word disappear just means what it says it means in plain english: disappear. Remember, in 5e, a spell only does what it says it does. Actually, it's written, it's an instant later. Like all instantaneous spells, you know, they happen in an instant. Now good luck finding a definition for that anywhere in the rules. "Teleport" is just a spell, just like "Dimension Door" or "Misty Step". None of these dive any precision about the time it takes to disappear and appear apart from the fact that it's "in an instant". You are not reading the spell in its entirety. The spell is instantantaneous, meaning that all of its "effects" happen in an instant, including the reappearance. Ah, this is where you are, once again wrong. "In an instant" does not mean "zero time". Moreover, do you deny that the boom appears AFTER the disappearance ? This clearly indicates that, even with something happening "in an instant", there can be a sequence. Do you deny that there can be a sequence ? Since there IS a sequence, what prevents the sequence from being "disappear" => "Boom" => "Reappear" ? Again, you stand on nothing but your own conviction. Remember that the boom ALSO happens in an instant. So, by your computations, and be very precise about this, is it at T=0 or At T>0 ? But there is, and I'm not the only one thinking there can be. I'm sorry, but your perspective is way too constrained by your own beliefs, but these appear nowhere in the rules, contrary to the fact that the words "disappear", "boom" and "appear" are in the spell description, and actually in that order...
