Teleport LOS
« on: November 28, 2012, 10:58:38 PM »
Teleport text: Target creature is Teleported to the target zone. X = 3 mana per zone moved away from its current zone. You must pay at least 3 mana even if the target is teleported to the same zone. This does not count as a move action for the creature.

Question about LOS 0-2 Creature & Zone

1. taget creature - upto 2 zones from the caster's current position, am I correct on this?

2. target zone - upto 2 zones from the target creature's current zone OR upto 2 zones from the caster's current position?

Please search next time before posting. We have two threads to help answer this question. Teleport & LoS the second is blue gremlin & teleport.

Can I teleport something through a wall?
Does it depent on which side I start the teleportation?


Teleporting
Teleporting is an effect that moves a creature directly from one zone to another. The teleported creature does not move through any zones in between, and bypasses all walls, creatures, and objects along its  route. Everything that is attached to the teleported creature, except conjurations, including all conditions, damage, enchantments, equipment, and mana, always moves with the teleported creature to its new zone. Any attached conjurations do not move with the creature when it teleports, and are destroyed. In this way, a creature can effectively escape from conjurations like Tanglevine. A creature may teleport into the same zone it started in (effectively teleporting zero zones) to escape from attached conjurations. Unlike a Push, teleporting can affect Unmovable creatures.

So it would be correct to say you can teleport a creature past a wall but not through it.  Also in order to do this you would need LOS to both the Creatures Zone and the intended zone if using the Teleport spell.

It only Matters that the mage Has LoS to the Creature and the Destination Zone.  The Teleported creature could have three sides of its zone walled off, but there would stil be at least two other zones that would have a LoS to that Zone. The wizard casting Teleport would have to be in one of those zones to move that Creature.
