[QUOTE="tylermalan, post: 2676855, member: 30929"] Oh ok, I got what you're saying. However, I think that by limiting the arena to such stringent rules, you're indirectly taking away from the effectiveness of a Wizard's class abilities - i.e., his ability to cast any spell he knows that comes from the PHB. If you don't allow him to teleport (or cast any other spell) to the maximum range that is allowed by the spell, then you're hampering his class-given abilities, which I think is what we're trying NOT to do, because this is a fight between a monk and a wizard, not a monk and a slightly worse than core wizard. That's like saying: "Ok, let's pit a Monk and a Fighter against each other, but the arena is closed, meaning you can't leave it, and it's too small for the Monk to Abundant Step to his full range, because even if he started on one extreme border when he Stepped, he would Step out of the arena, and lose the fight by default." - That sounds like its making the Monk's class abilities a little worse, hampering the class.
