Message: <blockquote data-quote="FoxWander" data-source="post: 18406" data-attributes="member: 1356"><p>All this talk about how hard such a circle would be to guard is kind of pointless as you could easily slide a stone block of several tons weight over the circle and shut it down until you moved the block. This would work cause Teleport has a weight limit, at 20th level its 1000 lbs. Anything weighing more than that covering the circle would shut it down. There is nothing in the spell discriptions of Teleport, Teleport Circle or Teleport w/out Error to suggest that stuff would be "shunted" to the closest clear space, as someone said earlier. That's Dimension Door that has a shunting effect. Teleport w/out Error mentions trying to teleport with misleading information about your destination causes you to blink out for a second only to reappear at your original location, so that's what would probably happen if you stepped on a Teleport Circle whose destination was currently covered in rock. Also, as far as simply dispelling the thing goes, if I were the mage who made such a thing purely for mercantile reasons I'd certainly view it as an investment. After all, why take a one-time payment of even 100,000 gp when you coul easily demand, say 20% or more of the profits made of the things use. So as an investment I'd take the time to enchant the 'Blocking stone' with a Antimagic Field. So much for dispelling! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /></p></blockquote><p></p>
