[QUOTE="DracoSuave, post: 5131753, member: 71571"] First, the same rules apply to push as to pull as to slide, so I'm going to use slide as shorthand. As well, you can slide your allies, so I'll be refering to 'their enemy' rather than PC. The answer to most questions (where can I move this guy?) is answered by one simple rule: Is the square in line of effect, and a square that the enemy can legally [b]walk[/b] to? Now... walk is a clearly defined game term, it means to move at your speed, no bells or whistles. So.... [I]A) Can the creature walk through his enemy's square?[/I] Normally the answer is no. However a creature with phasing can. Therefore, you cannot slide your target through his enemy's square unless he has phasing. [i]B) Can the creature walk through his ally's square?[/i] Yes. So, yes, you can slide a creature through his enemy's square. You can even slide your own ally through your own square, which is necessary when you do a swap places. [i]C) Can the creature walk through a wall?[/i] Well this is not so easy to answer, because 'wall' can mean many things. 1) A power with an area of 'wall'. The answer is yes, unless the wall is somehow impassable. If the enemy can walk into the wall, you can slide him into it. 2) If the wall is the sort that blocks line of effect, then no. Never. Most regular dungeon walls are like this. 3) If the wall does not block line of effect but does stop movement completely, then no, because he cannot walk there unless he has phasing. [/QUOTE]
