| Fills a good niche, provided the standard action ability is taken out. The point of this spell seems to be to allow short-range teleporting from level 1, and the standard action subverts that. Long-range spontaneous teleports really aren't an appropriate use of level 1 spell slots, and I don't see how that standard action ability adds anything thematically. If it were taken out, I'd favour this. |

| This goes well beyond scaling for relevance and scales past higher level spells. I'm just not down with that as a 1. Not even at VH. Scaling both the range and the duration makes me sad. The scaling being tightened a lot fixes much I think, but it still suffers from the combat buff plus escape problem that the regular bamf does because of the standard action "all your remaining distance" option. So it's a lot better, but still a spell that I'd be very hesitant to allow in a game. |
Wait, What?[edit]
Aside from the lack of later duration eating options, this has the same duration and range as bamf. Which was probably intended, but means it's a first level spell that lets you teleport 200' per round as a move action, for 20 rounds, at level 20. Even at VH that's nuts for a 1. There's scaling for relevance, and then there's scaling past everything else in your spell level like this does. Double spell scaling makes me sad. - Tarkisflux Talk 06:17, 3 October 2014 (UTC)
